Communications Project

CFTB and Radio and Reading Resources (RRR) have joined together to create stronger communication materials for our introduction of computers to the blind. Using the content provided by CFTB, a communications expert from RRR created audio CDs and cassettes for the computer training tutorials. The result - highly professional audio tools are now available to explain the learning processes necessary for computer proficiency.
