You have probably noticed by now (or maybe we’ve hidden our enthusiasm well!) that the staff at the INDATA office are a bit crazy about Apple products. We love Mac computers, laptops, iPhones, iPads and iPods. That being said, we are extremely excited about the upcoming free Apple Accessibility Training which will be held at Easter Seals Crossroads next Friday, July 8 from 9am to 3pm. The training is open to anyone with an interest in learning about Apple Macintosh Accessibility. Educators, parents and family members, students, vocational rehabilitation counselors, professionals and health care providers can benefit from this training content.
The training will include an introduction to Macintosh software and hardware. It will also include an overview of OSX Accessibility options like Universal Access for seeing, hearing, keyboard, mouse and trackpad and IOS Accessibility options such as accessibility voiceover and zoom text. Another portion of the training, will include discussions about applications (apps) for people with disabilities. These applications are downloadable for Apple products such as the iPhone and iPad. There are accessibility apps for augmentative communication, apps to assist blind/visually-impaired people and many others. This training will conclude with a question and answer session.
If you are interested in learning more about Apple products, Apple accessibility features and applications, please register online for this training. If you can not attend the training in person, INDATA will be streaming the training live online, and you must also register as an online attendee. If you have any questions, please contact Nikol Prieto via email at nprieto@eastersealscrossroads.org or phone 317-466-2013.
