Dear WebAIM list folks,<br />
<br />
Since many people are on both the WebAIM list and WAI lists, we don't usually cross-post messages from the WAI Interest Group lists (<https://www.w3.org/WAI/IG/#mailinglist>) here. However, it's been a while and we want to make sure that you get this info. And we want to encourage you to subscribe to the WAI Announce list that's only about 2 messages per month in your In Box.<br />
<br />
==<br />
W3C is excited to announce an immediate job opening. See:<br />
Accessibility Specialist<br />
https://www.w3.org/careers/2023-accessibility-specialist/<br />
<br />
W3C is seeking a full-time staff member to work on digital accessibility standards and supporting materials. The Accessibility Specialist will be an integral part of the highly-collaborative international Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) team integrated in W3C. This is an opportunity for a unique individual to contribute to the vision of an accessible digital future. The position is remote in the United States, with occasional international travel.<br />
<br />
==<br />
We provide a single web page where you can see what projects weâre working on at the W3C Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI), what publications are planned for the next couple months, and more. Check out:<br />
<br />
*What We're Working On*<br />
https://www.w3.org/WAI/update/<br />
<br />
==<br />
Get WAI Announcement e-mails â about 2 per month.<br />
<br />
To subscribe, send e-mail to <EMAIL REMOVED> with subject: âsubscribeâ.<br />
<br />
The WAI *Announcement* list (that is different from the WAI IG Discussion List) is very low traffic so the announcements get to you without clutter. We encourage you to subscribe to get WAI news, since we usually don't "cross post" to the WebAIM list to avoid duplication for people on both lists.<br />
<br />
Thanks for your help spreading W3C WAI news!<br />
<br />
Best regards,<br />
~Shawn<br />
<br />
