[J.J. Meddaugh]

     Hello. I just learned about this free event on Thursday at MSU that 
some of you may be interested in attending.

IT Next: Digital Access & Inclusion Conference, May 16, 2019
What is it?
IT Next: Digital Access and Inclusion Conference is a half day event on 
May 16, 2019 in alignment with Global Accessibility Awareness Day 
(globalaccessibilityawarenessday.org) that provides an opportunity for 
IT professionals, communicators, and academic specialists across the 
institution to engage, network, and advance in their careers.
"Digital access" addresses how our users access electronic information, 
and how content creators, programmers, and developers and other staff 
can ensure that web pages and web delivered content can function with 
assistive technology used by persons with disabilities.
• Come learn about why digital access and inclusion are an integral part 
of the modern digital landscape.
• Hear from leaders on how technology is a driving force that enables 
access, and the major role that MSU and other institutions have to play.
• Discover how you can make IT more accessible for persons with 
disabilities.
