I've been in the field of assistive technology since the late 80's and came to accessibility through that work. When I worked at an AT center, I did not do as much with accessibility then, except getting books in alternate format. And what I knew then about alternate format has grown exponentially over the last 3 years at a community college, as well as my knowledge of accessibility. I've learned from blogs, online webinars, and I also audited an html course, so just a google search for blogs and webinars will get you started. I also monitor Facebook and Twitter, and learn a lot as well as find webinars. Once you are on several lists, you'll be notified as well as they come about.
