The freebies in the video training section of this site are a good start.

Its also worth looking at Newtek's own site:

http://www.newtek.com/products/light...als/index.html

On the left hand side you have all the introduction videos. This should at least get you walking. Any more specific questions, ask here.

Oh and welcome to SLW
