<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<h3>Deque University: Web Accessibility Training and Courses<o:p></o:p></h3>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="color:black">In this meetup, Terrill Thompson will provide a tour of Deque University (DU):

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="color:black"><a href="https://dequeuniversity.com">https://dequeuniversity.com</a><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="color:black">DU offers an extensive curriculum of self-guided online courses on accessibility, from basic to expert, on a full range of digital accessibility topics. It also includes axe Assistant,
an AI chat tool that has been trained exclusively on Deque University content. It's more accurate and more reliable than general-purpose AI products, and laser-focused on accessibility. The UW is currently engaged in a 1-month pilot of DU. In addition to
providing a tour and answering questions, Terrill will facilitate a discussion about whether the UW community would utilize this resource, and what sort of context would make it most compelling.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<h3>Review website/applications. <span style="font-size:13.0pt;font-family:"Aptos Display",sans-serif;mso-ligatures:none">
<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Reviewing your site/application for accessibility is the main component of this meet-up and we all learn from such reviews.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">As always, let me know if you would like to review your site/application for accessibility.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<h2>About Monthly Web Accessibility/Usability Meet-up<o:p></o:p></h2>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">The Monthly Web Accessibility/Usability meet-up is a place for accessibility minded colleagues to casually reviewing and discussing your projects. This generally includes lots of hands-on testing
and code review. If you are working on a project and would like to get accessibility feedback from your peers, please let us know and we will add it to the agenda. We always encourage you to bring your own sites and topics, as it is a great learning experience
for everyone.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<h2>How to Join the Mailing List<o:p></o:p></h2>

to receive the announcements if you haven’t already done it yet. You can do so by accessing this link:
