Two suggestions:

* Rob Haverty's (Adobe) online webinar series at
https://adobe.lookbookhq.com/acrobataccessibility
* My firm's classes on accessible PDFs, including PDF AcroForms. I
don't have one scheduled on Word-PDF Forms, but there is a class in July on
InDesign-to-PDF Forms. www.pubcom.com/classes
<http://www.pubcom.com/classes> . (Discounts for Athen members.)



FYI, InDesign is a great tool for making accessible PDF forms. Many
benefits, beyond Word, and easier to produce and update.
