Hi,
I have been able to work with my eye doctor via email to get such documents signed, and usually turned around with in 1-2 days.
The best thing is to just fill out all the information and just email it to the doctor to sign. I.e. make it as easy as possible.
Best,
Mika

My current difficulty when it comes to getting prepped for exams is believe it or not, not finding resources, but getting the accommodations form signed by the right people (when I was in college, I just simply had the head nurse sign it for me) but now that I'm out, until I find a doctor that I trust, there's no getting that thing signed for me (my ophthalmologist doesn't have a working fax number ...)

Andrew, I have thought the same thoughts.
Cisco Academy for the Visually Impaired is by far the best source for taking the Networking course toward a Cisco certification plus the IT Essentials course for an CompTIA A+ certification.
I have not sat for either exam, but understand that progress is being made on taking the exams, but still there is far to go.
The Admin for www.ciscovision.org or www.cavitraining.org is on this list and can speak to it more so then I.
But the courses are high level, academically intense, and certainly the best courses around of all the online providers of technical courses for the blind or partially sighted.

Hi,
Reading the recent tweets that a VI specialist college in the UK has started running the Cisco courses. I emailed them at the beginning of the year enquiring how they worked and whether they were doing anything about the actual exams, and got the usual story that they were doing the academy study but not the full exams.
I was intrigued to read the tweets yesterday regarding one of the students winning a paid work placement with Cisco. Now just to be really clear, I couldn't be more happier for this guy, and I fully believe he deserves it.
However, I am now wondering if and how this could benefit other blind people who are looking for jobs in this area, and have done the same courses/tests etc. in the past, and are still looking for employment in the area, or for those people who have failed to get the exams in the past through lack of access.
Andrew.
