[Trainer-Talk] Checking availability of others when scheduling a meeting in outlook 365 with JAWS?

[David Andrews]

I think you use the scheduling assistant, put in appointment and 
people, and hit alt and arrow over to scheduling assistant.  On that 
screen that comes up, if I remember right you can tab over and see 
who is available at the chosen time.  You can then adjust time or 
day, and check again.  A little trial and error, but it works.
