This course is really good! I’ve always had to learn Braille displays, screen readers and embossers by reading manuals, often reference rather than tutorially oriented. I’m only half through but already I Love-Love this training.
For those who haven’t done it, the training is easy to follow, much much easier than trying to find what you need in a user guide! As a Braille display user since 1995, this is the best tutorial I have ever seen: thanks APH staff for the hard work.
