Alarmingly, my research indicates ATHEN’s 2008 survey (<a href="https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fitd.athenpro.org%2Fnode%2F87&data=02%7C01%7Cdavid.engebretson2%40wwu.edu%7C15f298c61da3438cef1d08d65c8298d8%7Cdc46140ce26f43efb0ae00f257f478ff%7C0%7C0%7C636798113314608707&sdata=lMJ0laEooyHb6tgYNmqO5mB45k2lYbVNwVIlE7bT1KA%3D&reserved=0" target="_blank">https://itd.athenpro.org/node/87</a>)
seems to be the most recent study of its kind that attempts to gather compensation\salary information specifically for access technologist positions in higher education.

entitled “Careers in Accessible Technology in Higher Education: Salaries, Qualifications, and Responsibilities” seems to be the “Staffing and Salaries” portion of the survey, but published separately. Unfortunately, my HR Department has deemed Study #1 invalid
for its purposes due to its relatively low sample size (1 Texas respondent), and its survey of posted job announcements rather than actual participants.

down reported US positions by specific geographic location (Results section): “Geographically, 66 of the positions (69.5%) were located in the United States, 11 (11.6%) in the United Kingdom, 10 (10.5%) in Canada, and 6 (6.3%) in Ireland. Australia and New
Zealand contributed profiles of one position each.” Once again, my HR Department judges these results invalid due to the lack of statistics attributable to post-secondary institutions specifically located in my home state\geographic region.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
