Touch Free Environment

On Wednesday, September 23, 2020, BSS began its transition to a Touch Free Office Environment. As we move forward during these challenging times, such efforts are directed in making our training facility as safe as possible.

Special acknowledgments go out to our Contractor Stronghold engineering for helping us make this happen.

Coffee Hour Before Technology Club

This month we will begin trying something new along with our monthly club meeting. In the spirit of bringing back the comradery and ambiance that was present in the lobby, the Technology Club zoom meeting will be open for one hour before the scheduled club meeting. Please feel free to join and chat with other participants, and use this time to get set up on zoom as we will be starting the meeting promptly when scheduled.

There are many applications available in the app store and google play store that can assist you while you are at home, school, work or on the go.

Our Assistive Technology department has compiled a list of accessible iOS applications for your smartphone or tablet that can assist you to improve your independence.

This month our Peer Support meeting will be an open discussion of Visual Impairment and personal journeys. Please feel open to discuss your visual impairment and journey, what you've learned to help you along, any moments of breakthrough, even just saying that you're new to this then talking about what you've tried and whether it benefited your or not.

Zoom Try It Lab

When: Friday, January 15th, from 1 to 3PM

Are you learning to use zoom and want to get more familiar with the controls and features? Then this is the place for you! We understand it can be difficult to explore and learn the controls and tools at your disposal during zoom meetings. Join us in our upcoming Zoom try it lab, when participants will be able to join a zoom meeting where there is no agenda but to hop in and familiarize yourself with the tools zoom has to offer.
