Subject: Agenda now available for the NFB Web Accessibility Training Day, 11/04/15

The Web Accessibility Training Day is fast approaching. Were you considering attending? We have the perfect argument for you: the agenda for the November 4 event is now available at https://nfb.org/web-accessibility-day <http://nfb.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=4501&qid=973069> . Wendy Chisholm, strategist at Microsoft and co-author of Universal Design for Web Applications, will be the keynote speaker. A long history of mediating between the technology and the policy sides of web accessibility make Wendy a speaker of great interest to anyone trying to bridge those same gaps; and it helps that she is an outstanding speaker <http://nfb.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=4502&qid=973069> . We’re delighted to have her share some of her experiences. But wait, there’s more – much more, so please do take a look at the session list. We are bringing together some great minds to help attendees work through every aspect of web accessibility.

In response to long-standing and loud requests, we are adding an option to register to be a remote attendee. We will be live streaming the event, but seats for virtual attendees are strictly limited, so sign up soon <http://nfb.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=4503&qid=973069> .
