What are the big names from across the sight loss sector doing about the current provision of technology training? We have brought together a panel of guests from RNIB, AbilityNet, TAVIP, Visionary, Sight and Sound Technologies and rehabilitation specialists to discuss this issue. On last week's programme, we focused on why so many visually impaired people aren't able to access meaningful in-person technology support and what is stopping the sector from sorting it out. In this programme, we're getting some answers on what they are currently doing within this space. Presenter: Peter White Producer: Beth Hemmings Production Coordinator: Kim AgostinoWebsite image description: Peter White sits smiling in the centre of the image and he is wearing a dark green jumper. Above Peter's head is the BBC logo (three separate white squares house each of the three letters). Bottom centre and overlaying the image are the words "In Touch" and the Radio 4 logo (the word Radio in a bold white font, with the number 4 inside a white circle).

When the RNIB announced changes to the way they deliver their Technology for Life service, we at In Touch heard a lot of trepidation from listeners over where visually impaired people can now go for meaningful support with tech. We thought we'd bring together a panel of guests from some of the big names across the sight loss sector, to tease out where this kind of help can be found and, ideally, delivered in-person. This programme is part one of two, where we assess the issue with guests from RNIB, TAVIP, AbilityNet, Visionary, a Rehabilitation specialist and Sight and Sound Technologies. The subsequent programme will focus on the potential solutions to this lack of in-depth and in-person support.

For minority groups, getting decent training on technology can be a challenge. Their positions at work could also be at risk because many employers want technologically-savvy employees.

Today we're talking about eating the security dog food! What do I mean by that? Well, a lot of security companies I worked for in the past preached to clients about the importance of having a good security program, but didn't have one of their own! I'm trying to break that pattern now that I'm in a position to lead an information security program for 7MS. In today's episode we talk about getting your company started with a good set of infosec policies/procedures. First up is a "mothership" infosec policy with the following sub-policies inside it: Acceptable Use Data Protection and Privacy Physical Security Tools and Technology Training and Awareness Reporting Oh, and the song I jazz/scat/sang coming out of the jingle was If I Were a Dog

HR Happy Hour 372- The Real Benefits of Technology Training Host: Trish McFarlane Guests: Traci Zablocki, Professional Services Consultant at ADP and Eileen Ekey, Sr. HCM Consultant in Professional Services at ADP This week on the HR Happy Hour Show, Trish was joined by Traci Zablocki and Eileen Ekey, professional services leaders at ADP, to talk about the importance of training when you buy a new technology solution. While some people think training is not necessary if the solution is intuitive, we talked about why that is not true.  Training is an important part of having a successful implementation and strong user adoption. We also covered ways HR leaders can find the most appropriate and effective types of training for their workforce.  We also talked through one specific tactic for success, the Ulitization Scorecard.

Douglas Lusk is the Founder/CEO of the National Society for Legal Technology (NSLT) and the creator of the Legal Technology Certificate. I think he's on the cusp of something huge, and he hasn't even graduated law school yet!   This legal technology training program addresses a problem that most attorneys struggle with: How do I comply with the new ethical rules requiring competence in technology when there are no resources in my law firm or law school to do so (and without investing in expensive software packages)?   Doug figured it out and, after just one year, his program has been included in the curriculum of over 70 law schools. On top of that, he's talking to bar associations about finally introducing CLE on software instruction – a much-needed improvement. Doug offers an elegant solution to a growing problem, and I'm excited to see how it develops.   Resources: Get Legal Technology Training: LegalTechSociety.org Connect with Doug: Twitter | LinkedIn   If you've enjoyed the podcast, please head to iTunes and leave a rating & review for the show!
