[Trainer-Talk] {Disarmed} Fwd: Learn for Free: NVDA video tutorials now available

[Brad Hodges]

Colleagues:


I learned about these video's at our NFB of WV Convention last fall. I 
just viewed the first offering, Installing NVDA. It is quite different 
than I had expected, and takes a very concise approach. I will reserve 
my judgement, however I would appreciate feedback from others here. I 
have been looking for a method to provide some kind of self-paced 
tutorial to those who are new to NVDA. I look forward to commentary from 
those of you who have more training experience than yours truly.
