Hi Susie,

One option, send 'em to Utah!:



WebAIM Training

When: May 6-7, 2014
Where: Logan, Utah
Cost: $850/person ($700 each for groups of two or more)

(from the Training tab at webaim.org .)

Or:
http://www.knowbility.org/

https://www.ssbbartgroup.com/

http://simplyaccessible.com/

http://www.deque.com/

There are many others (most of them on this email list!), so
apologies to those I left out. All the above groups have a mix of
live & online trainings, videos, tutorials, & so forth. So there
should be something for every budget, geographic location, or other
requirement.
