Hi, Claire,
The GSA Section 508 interagency forum is always great! But then I have been on the planning committee for years. Would be happy to share my thoughts with you anytime - it's well worth attending. It'll be hybrid this year, in-person in Arlington VA and virtual.

Subject: [WebAIM] Section 508 training/conference

Hello! What in-person/online trainings or conferences is everyone participating in?

I've completed DHS Trusted Tester in 2020 (I'd love a refresh/update), WebAIM's virtual web accessibility training, and a bunch of various other online webinars ... but naturally, I'm looking for more, what can you folks suggest?

Also, I saw the Annual Interagency Accessibility Forum is scheduled for Nov 7-9, 2023 https://www.section508.gov/iaaf/ - has anyone previously attended this?

Thank you so much!
Claire

Hi Claire,

I've attended and assisted with some of the backend setup with IAAF. It is
foe federal employees and contractors, and there is a vendor hall usually.
A great event for employees and contractors.
