Hi Curtis and Gary,

 

I might have sent this to you before, but I'm not certain. I think this
needs to be circulated.

I would like to invite everyone to participate in a confidential survey to
better understand the needs of and obstacles faced by the development
community when it comes to incorporating accessibility into the development
lifecycle.  This survey is being conducted by the Assistive Technology
Industry Association (ATIA) and the Accessibility Interoperability Alliance
(AIA) Division of ATIA.  ATIA is working to find ways to support developers
through a partnership with the Department of Labor's Office of Disability
Employment Policy.  The objective of the survey is to identify obstacles and
solutions to address the needs identified.  Results of this research will be
reported at an aggregate level, and names of organizations, if provided,
will not be identified when reporting findings.

 

We ask that you respond to this survey and pass it along to other colleagues
within your organization who play a role in the development process so that
we can identify the clear priorities and the best ways to support your
efforts to build accessibility processes.  Also, please feel free to pass
this along to anyone outside your organization who could also provide
valuable input on this topic.  

 

This survey should take approximately 15-20 minutes to complete and will
provide valuable insight to advance the goal of access for all.  Please
respond by end of day Sunday, August 29th by going to:

https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/SLXJ2CM           

 

If you have problems with this link and want to download a Word version of
the survey to email to us, you can go to
http://www.atia.org/i4a/pages/index.cfm?pageID=3882 and then email the
completed survey to aiaadmin at atia.org.

 

Thank you for taking the time to fill this out.  If you have any questions
about this survey, please contact aiaadmin at atia.org.
