[NFB-Science] Question regarding training program in a stem field

[avery ingram]

Hello,

I completely agree with everything Robert said. To quickly add to that, it might also be a good idea to filter the Bookshare books by publisher quality. Those are the most likely to be accurate and render well.

Best,

Avery

Hello:

    I am posting this to both the nfb-science and nfbcs lists.
I am surprised that a program targeted toward the blind would not have properly prepared materials.
Some years ago, I tried to take the coursework to obtain a CCNA certification. Some of the exams did have text descriptions of network configurations. I found the text descriptions a bit difficult to understand.
I just checked the BookShare site www.bookshare.org. Using the search term comptia, I was able to find a number of books.
I think there were half a dozen with 2026 copyrights. There were also books with 2024 and 2025 copyright dates.
I have no clue about the usefulness of the material, but it might help someone studying for a Comptia exam.
I do suggest caution, watch the copyright date. There are a few old titles. Hope this helps.

Regards,
Robert
