(www.gwmicro.com) and De Witt & Associates (www.4dewitt.com) announced a strategic collaboration to train blind and visually impaired people on the best usage of Window-Eyes, the most advanced screen reader for the Windows PC environment. De Witt & Associates is well-known and highly respected for developing assistive technology curricula. They design various training materials, including solutions for assistive technology trainers, teachers of the visually impaired, various government agencies, and others. As the popularity of Window-Eyes has continued to increase in recent years, De Witt & Associates has developed self-learning tools for Window-Eyes customers or anyone who wants to learn how to use Window-Eyes with various software programs. "We have had many requests from our customer base for Window-Eyes tutorials on specific software programs, such as Microsoft Word," said Jeremy Curry, Director of Training for GW Micro. "This strategic collaboration enables both GW Micro and De Witt & Associates to offer a top-notch training curriculum that has already proven to have a high demand from our customers." "While GW Micro and De Witt & Associates both offer custom training solutions, the self-learning tools will allow Window-Eyes customers to learn on their own from the comfort of their own homes," said Melissa Bourn, Director of Sales and Marketing for De Witt and Associates. "Unlike other tutorials, these self-learning tools are developed to train the individual from the very basic to more advanced skills." The first two books that are immediately available are Word 2007 with Window-Eyes and Word 2010 with Window-Eyes. These books contain 17 chapters, and start from reviewing the keyboard to learning about the Ribbon to inserting indexes and a table of contents. In the first quarter of next year, Excel 2007 with Window-Eyes and Excel 2010 with Window-Eyes will become available followed by other self-learning tools related to Window-Eyes and other software programs. In addition, a plan is in place to release a teacher and trainer guide for Window-Eyes, specifically designed for assistive technology trainers and teachers for the visually impaired. You may order the Word 2007 with Window-Eyes or Word 2010 with Window-Eyes self-learning tools starting today from GW Micro for $99 plus shipping. To order, call GW Micro at (260) 489-3671 or order online at https://www.gwmicro.com/catalog. The self-learning tools are currently only available in American English and may not be available in all countries.
