Interesting.
On a similar lines I have just started a quarterly webinar on Zoom covering
different topics of accessibility. I did my first one on July 10th. I am
currently in the process of collecting the feedback. I will soon plan for
the second one. Let me know if anyone are interested. I will share the
signup once it is live.

Here is the one I just closed.
