Just wanted to let anyone who is interested know, registration is
now open for an awesome resource for classes on learning about
building/repairing/maintaning computers as well as others on
networking available on-line. And the good news is it is taught by
and for blind individuals. Students range from folks that just want
to learn more about computers to be more self sufficient and
confident, to those wanting Cisco certification or A+ certification.
It is available for anyone throughout the world,
There is info at the address below, but trust me it is more laid back
and less intimidating than it appears... good folks. I am in the
midst of IT Essentials and entered with little to know ggeek
knowledge and learning a lot. They also have what is called
CaviCasts, which are couple hour demos on various applications and
etc. One recent demo was done by one of the developers of NVDA who
came in for Q&A and various walk throughs, another was a demo by
blind users of the incredibly affordable multi-track recording
software Reaper, other sessions were things like discussion of
backup methods and apps, use of effects in sound recordings, and a
range of topics. Its worth checking out.

Courses are very reasonable, I could have paid for them already for
work I had done just prior to my starting this class. You can also
email them for more info at cavii...@cucat.org
Thought some might like to know.
