Information about Volume
Are you having problems hearing the audio? Here are a few things you might try...
Check your system's physical components
First of all, does your computer have speakers? Are they plugged into the computer? If so, you can try increasing the volume on the computer's speakers as you would on your TV, radio or CD player.
Check the volume levels in your media player
Look for a sliding scale in the media player to adjust the volume.
Check the volume level of your computer
In Microsoft Windows, this is normally accomplished by double-clicking on the yellow speaker icon near the bottom right corner of your screen. On a Macintosh, click the volume icon in the icon list.
A Guide to Some Conventions Used on the CD
This is the TPRI training module logo. You will see the training logo at the top left hand corner on almost every page of the training module. Did you notice it in the corner of this page? The colors behind it may change from page to page, but it will be in that spot. If you click on this logo, it will take you to the home page.
This is the print button. Where you see this button, you can click on it to go to a file that will easily print on your local printer.
Other Questions You May Have
Your computer does NOT have to be connected to the Internet to use this training module! All materials for the TPRI Training Module are
on the CD-ROM. Therefore, all hyperlinks within the material to other sections of the module do NOT require that your computer be connected
to the Internet. We have, however, included as reference material, hyperlinks to some Internet resources such as the CARS Website. These reference links are found under the sidebar heading "Contact Information and Resources", and will only work if your computer is actively connected to the Internet.

All of our graphics include ALT TEXT. That's a fancy way of saying that, whenever you place your pointer over a graphic and stop moving the pointer, some text will appear on your screen, most commonly with a yellow background.
The reason for the ALT TEXT is two-fold. First, it gives blind persons, whose computers read to them, a description of what the picture is. Second, some people who view via dial-up (which is a phone line or modem connection from their computer to the Internet), choose to turn off graphics so that their Web pages will load quickly. The ALT TEXT will clue them on which graphics would be there if they could see them.
