Resources for Workplace Assessors

SuperNova for the Access to Work Scheme
If your client needs specialist software in order to work due to their visual impairment, you can be reassured that SuperNova Enterprise is robust and reliable, so you can feel confident in recommending to clients and applicants.
SuperNova Enterprise adapts to meet the needs of individuals with sight loss working in any organisation. It is easy to install and reliably supports Windows applications such as Microsoft Word, Excel and Outlook, as well as bespoke company systems.
SuperNova Enables Working From Home
To ensure organisations can offer hybrid working to all employees with visual impairments, SuperNova Enterprise is the only assistive technology of its kind that's certified as Citrix Ready and SAP certified. This means it can be used on remote desktops, if your client's workplace allows staff to work from home.
SuperNova Enterprise enables your clients to work wherever they need to, and provides confidence to work in the office, at home and when travelling.

Resources for Education Assessors

SuperNova for Students funded by DSA
If you assess the needs of students in further and higher education - or recommend assistive technology for students funded by the Disabled Students Allowance (DSA) - you can feel confident recommending SuperNova to students.
SuperNova is robust software that's easy to learn. This technology is simple to use and suitable for all age groups. It adapts to changing needs and the transition from school to university and on to the workplace.
Exclusive Offer for DSA Students
Students funded by a Disabled Student's Allowance (DSA) who purchase SuperNova with a twelve-month Software Maintenance Agreement (SMA) will receive the SMA free in their second and third year of study.
This exclusive DSA offer is designed so students who are blind or partially sighted have peace of mind that their SuperNova will keep pace with Windows 11 as it evolves, and if their sight changes during their studies.
To ensure DSA-funded students receive their free upgrade: quote 'DSA' and their full name on all orders, quote requests and price enquiries.
