[Trainer-Talk] suggestions for sighted coworkers interested in learning Braille

[Nimer Jaber]

Hello Yvonne,

Please take a look at this Paths to Literacy page
<https://www.pathstoliteracy.org/resources/free-online-resources-learn-braille>
for
some great resources. At the top of my mind would be the courses from
Hadley, and I believe they do have some for sighted individuals, but please
take a look at that page as it does list some resources.
