[Trainer-Talk] {Spam?} Webinar From Hartgen Consultancy: Catching Up With JAWS: Chapter 3!

[David Goldfield]

I'm unclear as to when this webinar is scheduled to take place. Since it 
covers new features in both JAWS 2020 as well as JAWS 2021 it will 
likely occur after JAWS 2021 has been released. This webinar is not free 
of cost but recordings of the webinar can be purchased once it's been 
released. Brian is an excellent teacher.


Catching Up With JAWS: Chapter 3!
Submitted by brianhartgen on Tue, 09/01/2020 - 15:09
Introduction.
Now is your chance to get some high quality training on some of the 
latest features within the screen-reader JAWS for Windows which have 
been introduced over the past two years. This follows on from our 
previous popular training courses on this subject. These training 
courses are still popular and people are still purchasing the older 
volumes in the series even today!

If you are a person who chooses to upgrade your copy of JAWS on a 
regular basis, or maybe you've skipped an upgrade or two and you are 
about to update your computer to JAWS for Windows version 2021 in 
October, chances are that you may not have had time to get to grips with 
the latest features the screen-reader offers. While JAWS does contain 
excellent documentation, there's nothing like someone sitting down with 
you to explain how many of these new features work.

That's why at Hartgen Consultancy, we've created a short course to 
enable you to get your JAWS knowledge up-to-date. The course will focus 
upon the new features included with JAWS versions 2020 and 2021.

With the new annual subscription to JAWS now available starting in the 
US, (designed to make it easier for people to obtain JAWS or to jump up 
to the latest release), it's a good chance to get your knowledge 
updated. Not only that, this training course is ideally suited to users 
of Zoomtext Fusion too.

Purchasing JAWS is a significant investment, so it is important that you 
make the most of what you've paid for and that you are taught by someone 
who fully understands all aspects of using it. You may also be an access 
technology Trainer, or an I T Lecturer in a College who has a basic 
awareness of how JAWS works but again is not up to speed with the latest 
enhancements.

What You Will Learn.
This course is in one session lasting 90 minutes. It is designed for 
anyone who already understands how to use many functions of JAWS but who 
would like to gain a greater skill level with the latest features. The 
features are demonstrated with real world examples so that they make sense.

Topics include:

Enhanced JAWS and Invisible Cursor Support for Windows 10 Universal Apps.
Improvements to JAWS OCR.
Enhancements in Microsoft Office 365.
Improvements with Braille, including using Braille without speech.
Toggle JAWS Sounds in Speech On Demand.
Microsoft Edge improvements.
The Braille and Text Viewers.
Keep Wireless Speakers and Sound Cards from Clipping Speech.
Features of JAWS 2021. For obvious reasons we cannot write about these 
yet but there is plenty to tell you.
Other Tips and Tricks which are hidden away just waiting to be found. As 
usual you will hear about things which are not apparent on the surface! 
People often tell us they learn things about JAWS which they have not 
been told anywhere else.
If I Purchase the Course, What Will I Receive?
The course will give to you:

The opportunity to participate in a Zoom meeting to ask any questions 
about topics covered or anything related to JAWS. The lesson will take 
place at 7 PM UK time, 2 PM US Eastern, on 21 October 2020;
An audio recording of the lesson;
A text keystroke summary to cover all topics covered in the lesson.
The audio recording and Zoom meeting are accessed through a secure area 
of our website which is only available to course participants.

How to Purchase.
Catching Up with JAWS is priced £35 which is approximately 47 American 
dollars. Purchase Catching Up with JAWS Chapter 3.

Alternatively, anyone can purchase the course by sending an Email to 
jaws at hartgen.org, whereupon a fully accessible electronic invoice will 
be sent to you which can be paid through PayPal or any major credit or 
debit card.

Conclusion.
With JAWS 2021 just around the corner, be sure you are at the cutting 
edge and become familiar with everything new in this upcoming release 
and the current version. You'll be glad you did!
