Hi Sara, When I first went to the Apple store, you could feel that they were a little doubtful as to whether they could do the training or not. Apparently, i impressed them enough with the little I knew about VO that they were willing to give it a go. I'm sure they got as much out of the classes as I did. If nothing else, I hope that I paved the way for some other blind person if they decide to take classes in the future. By the way, the price couldn't be better $99.00 for the year, 50 classes.
