Jennison,
This is good information. Are there any other events in the following
months?
I am trying to find a good event that can provide good information for
higher education institutions. Everything from talking about managing web
accessibility in an institution to the level of how to make our courses
accessible.

Thanks,
Giovanni

Giovanni et al,

For higher education and accessibility issues, there's the 14th Annual
Accessing Higher Ground conference in November (14-18) outside denver.
They are now in their Call for Presentations phase
