EASI is proud to announce a new workshop, Train the Trainer, offered for
it's second time on July 8th.

This is one of the eight courses offered in our certificate program and can
be taken towards the certificate or as a stand-alone course.

     Train the Trainer

Many organizations are providing limited training on adaptive technology to
their customers, students or staff in a variety of different software
packages. They do not plan to provide depth training, and they only expect
to provide training on a specific application periodically. They are
concerned with how to prepare some staff person to provide this basic
training on many applications and only at infrequent intervals. Train the
Trainer is intended to provide basic know-how on several adaptive
technologies, provide tools to help the trainer refresh their memories
quickly as well as giving teaching tools and hand-outs for the end learner.
It is ideal for institutions which provide adaptive technology to a constant
stream of new users such as a school or library. The institution's trainer
has training as only one part of his/her responsibilities and needs concrete
support to assist with this added responsibility. The course will cover
operating system basics, adaptive technology basics for screen readers,
screen magnification, voice recognition and more. It will give tips for
teaching to people with disabilities.

Registration and syllabus are available from the main course page
