[nabs-l] SPSS with NVDA

[Ashley Bramlett]

Ian, while the school is not obligated to make exceptions for you to 
complete your work, they are required to make accomodations.  So if the 
program is inaccessible they have to provide that info in another way.  They 
should hire an assistant to be your reader/scribe or assign a teacher 
assistant, TA, to assist you.  They would read the screen and describe 
things; they would not be doing the work for you.

I'd say if you could accomplish the work in another program such as excell, 
then that is also a reasonable accomodation.
