Whether you're interested in dictation for health or productivity reasons (or just for fun!), this webinar will give you all the insight you need to start off on the right foot.

Nora Díaz has written and trained others extensively on speech recognition for dictation and computer control, and is currently recognized as one of the leading experts in this field.
