Virtual Training: Nemeth Code Update
Join us in May for an in-depth training on the Nemeth Code Update that you’ll be able to attend from anywhere in the world!
After our full-day training in Colorado Springs on this topic last fall proved to be popular, we’ve made some moves to make the training available online so anyone can attend from anywhere and get that same important information. We’ve reformulated that full day of Nemeth training into a few sessions.
Description
In three sessions, we will take a close look at the 2022 edition of The Nemeth Braille Code for Mathematics and Science Notation, examining the changes implemented since the adoption of UEB. In Session One, we will walk through each rule noting differences from the 1972 edition of the Nemeth code. Session Two will introduce the rules regarding code switching. Session Three will illustrate the new rules with numerous examples. We look forward to taking you on a tour of the new Nemeth code.
Presenter: Lindy Walton, Member, NBA Nemeth Code for Math and Science Committee
