[Electronics-Talk] Looking for training resources for Zoom text

Well, I have a job interview as an assistive technology instructor and since
I am fully blind I haven't really needed to poke around Zoom Text, but I
think that I am getting a good primer so far. I have a lot of experience
with Assistive Technology, but Zoom Text is my week link. From what I can
tell the other candidates are sighted and their week points are screen
readers in general and I no Jaws, NVDA and Voice Over so I think I am in the
running.

Papa, they have webinars on their website, they have classes in various
cities once in a while, I found their tech support very great for 25 years,
they have a new product I think called fuasion which is a beefed up version
of zoom text and windows.  Also zoom text level 1 is more magnification,
visual colors etc and zoom text level 2 is more of an application reader as
compared to a true screen reader, like jaws.
I use both in conjunction.

Hello list, I am looking for any training resources that would help a
completely blind person using jaws be able to learn Zoom Text. Any help in
finding a resource would be great.
