Webinar: The Past, Present, and Future of Digital Accessibility
Partner & Community Accessibility
We invite you to join an upcoming webinar, The Past, Present, and Future of Digital Accessibility, hosted by AiiCE on Tuesday, October 20, 2026, from 11:30 am-12:30 pm Pacific/2:30-3:30 pm Eastern.
Digital accessibility has come a long way—but how did we get here, where do things stand today, and what comes next? This session will trace the evolution of digital accessibility through three questions: How did we get here? (the past); Where are we now? (the present); and Where do we go from here? (the future). Along the way, we’ll explore the technologies, standards, laws, and changing expectations that have shaped the field—and consider the emerging trends and opportunities that could define its next chapter.
