Hello,


I wanted to bring to your attention another conference that might be of interest to those of you working in the digital accessibility arena. The IMS Global Learning Impact Leadership Institute features a track on accessibility (as well as digital credentials, adaptive learning, bridging IT and instruction, etc.).


The conference is  May 21 - 24 in Baltimore. You can learn more about the conference on their website: Learning Impact Leadership Institute<https://www.imsglobal.org/LILI2018> (https://www.imsglobal.org/LILI2018<https://www.imsglobal.org/LILI2018>)

Preview session tracks using the agenda -- you can sort by topic to view the accessibility-related sessions: LILI Agenda<https://www.imsglobal.org/learning-impact-2018-agenda> (https://www.imsglobal.org/learning-impact-2018-agenda)<https://www.imsglobal.org/learning-impact-2018-agenda>

IMS Global is an organization that works to bring together stakeholders to align/define standards in education technology in hopes of ensuring interoperability in order to "enable education institutions to be more innovative, provide a more seamless user experience and dramatically reduce the cost of integrating products into the educational enterprise systems." --it's more on the tech side of things in case you're wondering.

Cheers,
