In addition to the transition course, Hadley just completed the update of
its "Introduction to Braille" course in UEB and it's currently updating its
existing course, "Braille Literacy 3" which should be ready in early 2016.
The "Introduction to Braille, UEB Edition" course will be ready for enrollment
in the early fall of 2015. This 9-lesson course is intended for sighted
professionals and family members who wish to learn uncontracted UEB.
Enrollment in the "Introduction to Braille, UEB Edition" course is also open to

members who only use uncontracted braille to transition their skills to UEB.
For professionals who complete this course, CEU's will be awarded.

"Introduction to Braille, UEB Edition" but teaches tactile readers to read
