I've taken the liberty of changing the subject line so that this
collection can be found by others.

As a result, I'm including Patrick's message below, since I expand upon it.

To expand, just a bit, on Patrick's good list,here are five more
things I happened to have handy:

1. Of course, we just had a discussion about CSUN, so I presume it's
on your radar for next year. There are plenty of training opportunities there.

2. Knowbility's Accessu will be held this year in May. See
specifically this page for details:

http://www.knowbility.org/v/john-slatin-accessu/

3. Here's a link to a totally online accessibility summit that was
held last year, in September. It's been held for several years, and
maybe there's an email list for announcements so you can find out if
there will be one this year:

4. Here's a link to an upcoming Web Conference at Penn State:
http://webconference.psu.edu/

5. and finally, some here could find it helpful to keep an eye on
the "unconferences" about which Jennison posts here regularly. If
there hasn't been one near you, why not start one:?

Best,
