<p>I like that idea, Angela!</p>

<p>If everyone could keep an ear out for different solutions that folks are coming up with that would be great. A quarterly "show and tell" would be cool and a nice way to focus on/highlight successes. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">I think each of these are excellent ideas Jess because they reach different audiences that are all in support of accessible IT. The show and tell idea might
also be neat someday to show/tell a particular implementation of a technical solution - for example an accessible online course catalog. They might already all have one, I was just making up an idea illustrative of being of interest to all colleges.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">At the last meeting I think it was Deb that suggested coming up with a webinar calendar. I was hoping to get to that earlier in the year, but I failed. I'm looking for some folks to help A) suggest
topics and B) host/help schedule/prepare a webinar. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">I've reached out to a guy at WebAIM to do a demo of the NCDAE GOALS
<a href="http://www.ncdae.org/goals/planningtool.php">Benchmark and Planning tool</a>. This is a free tool for teams (like accessibility workgroups) to determine where they're at in terms of bringing web accessibility into their practice. I'm a big fan of their
<a href="http://www.ncdae.org/goals/indicators.php">list of indicators</a> -- it's a great way to get a sense of what your institution should be doing to address web accessibility. So, that's one webinar that I want to get scheduled ASAP. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">Ward and I are doing a presentation next week on procurement, we could probably do another version of that for another webinar. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">Then... ? <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">I think a "policy show and tell" would be sort of cool... Some chance for a few schools to share what they've developed and answer questions about how and why they developed the policy as they
did. <b><i>Anyone willing to volunteer for this?</i></b><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">One thing we talked about at the last meeting was the challenge of getting this info to deans. Maybe we could do a webinar specifically for them? Would someone higher up want to run with that -
I'm not sure they'll listen to a lowly program admin. <b><i>Joe? Mark? and maybe someone from the colleges?</i></b><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">That would get us through the end of this year... but maybe in Spring we can develop a calendar for next year and get something published nice and far in advance. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">Thanks,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
