Nattiq Technologies completed the delivery of one-week training to a group of blind Kuwaitis in Kuwait, covering all aspects of using standard computers independently to access information technology.
The group of trainees consisted of university students who are about to graduate and are in the process of looking for competitive job opportunities in addition to school teachers who look for career advancements through acquiring quality computer training. The training was inspired by the recently celebrated success in the UAE where blind youth graduates succeeded in obtaining competitive jobs in conglomerate regional organizations after going through quality computer training.
"Hal screen reader has proved its effectiveness in helping blind people in the Gulf gain advanced job opportunities. We feel that our Association members are entitled to train on such a technology to enhance their opportunities in acquiring competitive jobs in Kuwait too," said Mr. Masoud Bushahri, Computer Committee Coordinator at the Kuwaiti Association for the Blind.
Nattiq continues to deliver high quality training throughout the Middle East to blind people who look to enhance their independence in pursuing education and career advancements. Similar training was conducted in the UAE, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt, Tunis and Palestine.
