[Trainer-talk] PC helpware

Fri May 17 18:31:10 UTC 2013

Yes, the original question was about a software called PC helpware.
The consumer will be required to use this piece of software to
remotely control a non-AT users computer.
Though the links to JAWS tandem and Skype on the tech vision site has
been helpful in other areas.
Another technologist in our agency, with more experience with remote
access management software like this is going to test it this weekend,
for fun.
Does anyone have suggestions for an alternative, if the software is
not accessible out of the box?
My consumer will need to, as a tech support Technician for an Internet
service provider, remotely access, control, and fix the computers of
customers who do not have   assistive technology installed. Is there
remote access software out there that would provide the technician
text to speech access of the destination computer?
Hiring a script writer  is a possibility, but may be more expensive
then the employer, and counselor, can afford. So, if you have
suggestions on creative funding for hiring a script writer that would
be helpful too.
Thanks in advance
Laine
