[nfbcs] Microsoft Office Certification and Accessible Study Materials

[Bryan Schulz]

Hi,

Like yourself, I haven't obtained those seven certs since 2004.
My reason was rsb didn't even recognize them as an asset to being an
engineer.
I would guess nothing has changed and we still need an assistant due to the
lower third of the screen not being accessible and the candidate loses too
much time trying to figure out the task and hitting submit or next buttons.
It would be nice if Clay could open a St. Louis office.

Hello, I had gone through that program in 2004, and had passed
certifications for three Office 2003 programs.

It sounds as if the test taking process now is not accessible to Jaws, and
that a  potential test candidate will need a reader?
Maybe a point and clicker?
Just curious about the current state of the test taking process.
Thanks.

Hi,

There was a pilot program from the iowa center in 2004.
If you think you can take the exams with jaws, guess again!

Hello.
I have been perusing the Certiport web site, the organization that oversees
the test taking procedures for the Microsoft Office certification process.
I have indeed found an extensive list of all of the tasks that a test taker
will encounter during a typical exam, but have not found any accessible
guides or study materials.
Perhaps someone has seen something like this on the web that I may have
missed?
Thanks for any tips that you might provide.
