Yes, the VA curriculum goes through a lot of it, and I think it even divides things up into beginners and more advanced users. I hope they'll incorperate iOS 6 changees at some point. One of the cool things about iOS 6 is that you can run different accessibility options together like Zoom and VoiceOver. During a demo awhile back, I was running Zoom, VoiceOver, and braille all at the same time. A few of us are also working on a curriculum for use with braille devices on iDevices. Some partsof it need to be modified for specific displays or notetakers, but it'sa work in progress.
