Hi, Daniel:  Hadley (www.hadley.edu) has a free correspondence course
called Essentials of the Nemeth Code.  You could check that out and
hopefully it wouldn't be too basic for you.  I'm not sure if you just want
the basics of the Code or if you want to learn the entire Code itself.

The Nemeth Code is quite intricate and has lots of nuances and "the rule is
*this* but it changes to *that* under these circumstances" so if you really
wanted to get into it, you would need someone to at least guide you along
the way, someone to ask questions of.  The American Printing House for the
Blind (APH) also sells the Nemeth Code book itself.

There's also: The Nemeth Code Tutorial available from
www.freedomscientific.com which is for use on the Braille Lite if you have
access to one of those.

And thumbs down for not teaching the basics of Nemeth at the Michigan
Training Center.

SM
