Applied Learning Corporation® was founded in 1970 with a mission to "provide a family of services and an array of products to enhance performance and protect well-being wherever keyboards are used." Later it added "to bring computer access to as many people as possible." The company counts more than one thousand corporations, institutions, agencies and individuals among its clients and is regarded as a world leader in ergonomics.

Recently, while moving from Wayne, PA to St Augustine, FL. the company changed it's name to better reflect its current mission as North American Master Distributor of the MALTRON family of adaptive and ergonomic keyboards.  Now we are Applied Learning Maltron-USA

Its unique training services, all focusing upon keyboards and keyboarding, have been employed by most of the nation's top newspapers, nearly all financial printers and many banks and other processors of data and documents.

By the mid-seventies Applied Learning's ergonomic guru Lillian Malt and her partner in electronics Stephen Hobday had developed the first ergonomic keyboard, the MALTRON. Soon they added adaptive keyboards for people with special needs, including single-hand and "stick" models and, recently, one to assist those with tremors. Applied Learning distributes these keyboards in North America.

The shape matches head movement and the key arrangement minimizes finger or stick activity, raising performance and relieving frustration.  Users report doubling their keying speed with less effort compared to the conventional keyboard. An optional articulated arm holds the keyboard in almost any position to suit the head or mouth stick use.
