It would appear not Mark, but I like the idea and am myself a 'fan' of audio books for longer journeys etc. The only thing I could suggest in the absence of there being anything available, is to see if there is anything on e books and then use a Kindle or similar with text to speech conversion. It isn't really what you're looking for, and far from ideal but perhaps better than nothing.

Along the same lines as Canopener, if you have your documents in Word, you can convert them to PDF (there are a number of free and commercial converters available on the web). Transfer your new PDF to a Kindle and switch on the reader (it can work with a number of formats). I haven't tried this myself but it should work.
Similarly, if you have a scanner, you could scan textbooks into PDF and do likewise (careful of copyright restrictions). Most scanners come with the software to do this (Optical Character Recognition software). Again if if doesn't you can download / buy a programme to do this. (CNET is a good place for freeware / shareware: other download sites are available).

If you don't mind the sound of your own voice, I read my diploma notes to my Dictaphone and then converted them to CD discs via I Tunes (I think) to play in my car on my way to work. I suspect you could do something similar on your IPOD/MP3 these days.
Not very professional- but you get the chance to reiterate points to assist with your learning.
It did the trick for me.
