Hey everyone, I wanted to share some of the info mentioned today.

First off, Freedom Scientific offers many training resources.  There are 
hours of webinars, trainings, tips, and other content on their training 
pages.

They have a specific page for webinars; it can be found at this link. 
Alternatively, you can go to their home page, and click on Training.  There, 
you will find many, many resources including the aforementioned webinars, a 
section for practicing Internet skills called "Surf's Up", video tutorials, 
and much more (each product is listed separately).  They even have a YouTube 
channel for more tips.

There are also resources in the help menu.  If you press Insert+J, followed 
by Alt+H, you will find training resources, a basic audiobook, and a lot 
more.

FreedomScientific also offers a license of JAWS that expires on June 30.  If 
you're interested, here is more information on the license.

I also wanted to mention something for HumanWare users.  If you use a 
BrailleNote Touch, Victor Reader Stream or Trek, or a whole number of 
magnifiers, they are now offering a new webinar series.  These are very 
useful.  Here is a direct link to these webinars, but you can also click on 
Support, followed by "HumanWare Live Webinar Series" from the home page. 
There are also many other resources there as well for other products.

We talked about Jonathan Mosen's free audiobook, called Meet Me Accessibly, 
a guide to Zoom Cloud Meetings from a blindness perspective.  If anyone is 
interested in this book, you can go to mosen.org and click on the link for 
the book.  Or, you can simply click here for the book.

Happy learning, and stay safe.
