REMOTE TRAINING ON ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY
A More Productive Way For Students With Disabilities To Learn
Hands-Free Computing is the first company in the UK to launch one to one remote training on assistive technology software for higher education students - via the telephone or Skype.
We train students to use Dragon, TextHelp, Inspiration and other assistive software, in the comfort of their own study area. The advantages are:
- Students get the best from the software - good training means they will be able to use the software specifically for the way they like to work.
- Low cost - prices start from only £50 per hour - no travel for our trainers is involved so we can pass this cost saving on.
- Learn in bite size chunks – students can book hourly sessions – a great advantage especially for those with dyslexia.
- Evening and weekend sessions available – students can learn at a time to suit them.
If you would like to find out more about how we can help your students please contact Theresa Pruvost or Jo Bundy for more information on

“I have been really impressed with Hands Free’s quality of remote service and their genuine engagement when resolving difficulties that arise from students that are learning to use their assistive software.
“I think the availability of this support from a team committed to meeting diverse learning requirements is a real advance on the ‘one hit’ method of training”
