Morning Everyone!

This was released at the AFB conference last week. Thought it might be of interest.

For anyone interested in the following as well: Mohawk College (Hamilton Ontario) has permanently cancelled the Accessible Media Production Program which was a graduate certificate that was an intensive, comprehensive 8 month program that provided career path skills for those wanting to work in the field of digital accessibility. It was a one-of-a-kind graduate certificate.

The decision was made without warning or consultation and is devastating for those wanting a career in digital accessibility...and those of us with disabilities.

Cheers, Karen
