[blindLaw] Accessibility of Salesforce platform

[Will W]

I’ve run into the same problem with Canva.
Nice accessibility language online, but no options about keyboard, commands, or anything nearly impossible for a totally blind person to navigate with Jaws or voiceover efficiently, it takes lots of guest work and waste of time to do anything outside basics of uploading files.

I do have a highly skilled judicial assistant, recently hired, who has been helpful managing many day-to-day tasks using this system, but my assistant chief (Boss) doesn't want me to be entirely dependent upon her. I really don't want to be either. My job involves tight deadlines and multiple, sometimes conflicting demands. When I go online to find Accessibility solutions for this platform, I see nothing but slick, self promotional material from the company itself and nothing from blind people ourselves or our advocacy agencies.
> Have any of you in your practices had better luck with SalesForce or any of its products? I have Heard of the Blind Institute of Technology (BIT), which appears to be an academy sponsored by SalesForce to train and market blind IT technicians, but it looks like nothing much more than a tax shelter. I find nothing about it on the Internet except the same, self promotional Company ads.
