Hi Adrian,if you go to the link I sent you for Cisco Academy For The Visually Impaired, you will find a suitable networking course to undertake and as most if not all of tutors are visually impaired, then they are fully equipped to cater for your needs.

Hi Jackie I have always wanted to go into networking, learning how the internet works, websites etc, I was going to do a course with Perth college some time back but the college was diveringand dive ring and I found out that they had no idea what a blind person needed, they kept asking me what help I needed where as they should have been the experts and should have been advising me, that was ten years or so back but it is something I'd like to learn. I have contacted the rnib because I am in France, it'll have to be done purely distant learning, Loughborough does courses but it is basic, not the level I am looking for and again I'd have to travel back and forth, no good as somebody would have to travel with me because of the wheelchair. Thanks for your info, will have a look.

Is it a certain aspect such as web communication, blogging, podcasting etc, or is it more hardware stuff? I highly recommend www.ctjt.biz The guy who runs these courses is really good at making his modules accessible, but they deal a lot with writing for the web and other journalistic aspects. But there just might be something among the choices available that would appeal?
