I’m attending as an online participant. This is a big question, so I would direct you to their staff for consolidated feedback about accessibility, as they would want a subsequent conference to build on their experience. It might be hard to reach them while the conference is underway, though I could imagine their staff attending AHG, so there might be someone with crossover who has done some due diligence on accessibility.</div><div><br></div><div>So far, it’s been smooth as an app for engagement and several sessions, after roughly 4 days in. They did have an unnamed glitch this morning that was overcome by pushing out the session on Zoom. They emailed the link to participants well ahead of the 10:30 start time.<br><br><div dir="ltr">Best wishes with the conference,</div><div dir="ltr"><br><div>Stephanie Lazarus</div><div>Accessibility Manager; ADA/Sec. 504 Coordinator </div><div>UMBC</div><div>1000 Hilltop Circle Math/Psych 218</div><div>Baltimore, MD 21250</div><div>410-455-5745 </div></div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">On Sep 14, 2020, at 1:43 PM, Howard Kramer <hkramer@ahead.org> wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">We're considering using Whova for some of our virtual events.
