Hello Everyone, 
Leslie, I agree with you. This discussion has been very interesting. Everything 
that I have seen relates to the online classes self study method. I would also 
like to know about the online classes that are Instructor led. 
Thanks. 
Pat Seed

  Hello Jean and list.  Are you taking the self-paced class or the
  instructor led class?  I'd like to get a reply or two from someone who
  either is or has taken the instructor led class so I can compare my
  options and choose the right one for me.  Thanks in advance.

  Hi Leslie,
  I'll add to Sandra's comments on the Carroll Center course.  Concerning 
  graphics for a totally blind user.  It's handled very well.  We can't
  create 
  graphics, but you will learn how to place existing graphics files into
  your 
  document, how to position them and how to change the dot resolution as 
  needed. Sighted people don't create graphics in the course either.
  There is 
  a separate program for that which is not Jaws accessible.

  It's worth every penny in my mind.  I'm on lesson 11 now and I'm feeling

  much more comfortable with DBT now.  Like Sandra, I wouldn't have picked

  this stuff up just by reading the help documentation.  Hey, you'll also 
  learn how to use the help files more effectively, and hey, I actually 
  understand what I read in them now.  Smile.

  Jean
