  Corporate and Personal Training
Gloria Dalton has performed training on behalf of Frontier Computing over the past eight years with glowing reviews. Gloria is a passionate, caring and patient individual that is always a pleasure to work with. I believe the biggest complement that I can offer Gloria is that our clients request her by name.

Stephen Ricci

“My clients have been very pleased with the training Gloria Dalton has provided. They report feeling very competent in the use of Dragon voice recognition software after their training with Gloria. She helps them acquire the computer skills they need, so that they can focus on their academic work. Ms. Dalton maintains a very professional, yet personable, attitude with her clients.”

Recommended Adaptive Software

Kurzweil 3000

This assistive software allows the client to scan their text books and worksheets into a file on their computer. Kurzweil also reads the text to allow them focus on the context, which can increase the reading rate and comprehension. This helps the reading to be less stressful and tiring. Kurzweil 3000 is recommended due to the study tools that are included in the program. Students can highlight and extract text and transfer their notes to a word processing program.

Dragon Voice Recognition

The Dragon Naturally Speaking software allows the client hands-free operation of their computer. The client can input text directly into applications such as Word, Outlook and Excel by voice. This type of software can give relief from typing for bi-lateral hand injuries or any type of injury that requires typing. The use of a digital recorder with the Dragon program allows the client to record lectures or training sessions instead of taking notes. The injured worker experiencing pain or taking medication may find concentrating difficult for long periods of time. The recorder will allow the client to listen to the lecture when they are more able to concentrate. It also allows the client to record their own voice and then transfer it to their computer into a word processing program. The client needs to be given adequate time to practice the use of the commands so they achieve a high level of accuracy to allow them to be productive.
