Hello!

Ok, notes from HRMC: -- not all related to our models, but...

*       Question about who's liable when a vendor's product isn't accessible
*       Request for language to add to job descriptions (Whatcom offered to share)
*       Question about how to integrate training into on-boarding - asked full group if anyone did that (no response)
*       Question about how many folks would staff an Accessible Tech Service Center
*       Question about how to get a read on what tech folks (mainly faculty) are using when it's free and therefore not part of the purchasing process, how do we overcome not knowing what's in use?
*       Comment from Walla Walla: as a small school, the Service Center appeals because their folks are already wearing multiple hats and it doesn't seem feasible to have someone who could dedicate time to becoming a trusted tester - and concern around when someone with that expertise leave, the knowledge goes with them - would prefer a spot that they could call on for input, resources, etc.

I think that's all of the questions/comments.

Jess
