The VHEAP UnConference - June 9, 2023

Mirroring the popular Edcamp style of professional development, an UnConference is a lightly organized, peer-led, participant-driven event in which attendees propose and facilitate sessions. In other words, you decide what we discuss! Focusing on programmatic, physical, and digital accessibility, this UnConference will involve free-flowing discussions, not presentations of one person’s work or point of view. All are welcome to attend and share their expertise.

This event builds on the success of the earlier UnConferences held in 2018 and 2020 and welcomes accessiblity professionals from K-12, higher ed institutions, state agencies, and others interested in the world of accessiblity.

Join your colleagues from across the Commonwealth to share ideas, challenges, and solutions as we work towards a more inclusive and accessible experience for all. We hope you will join and be ready to participate!

More information can be found on the VHEAP website.

NOTE: If you experience difficulties with the registration process, please send an email to coaa@virginia.edu or contact Lori Kressin at (434)982-5784 for assistance.
