[Trainer-Talk] Multiple screen readers, was Fwd: [ITACCESS] Quick screen reader usage survey

[Greg Aikens]

Hi, 
I took this survey but it misses something that has been on my mind recently. I feel like increasingly, the people I train truly need to be competent in multiple screen readers to be able to access everything. I primarily use JAWS but there are times I have to use NVDA to accomplish something JAWS can't, and more and more often, I find myself firing up Narrator when a Windows screen or message will not read. 

That doesn't even begin to touch IOS/Android, which most of my clients use. 

I'm curious to know how other instructors are handling this. Are you providing instruction in multiple screen readers on the computer? If so, what order do you teach them in? What does it look like?

Thanks for your feedback.

-Greg
