UW Web Accessibility and Usability Meetup

These monthly meetups, formerly known as “Explore with Hadi” provide an opportunity for UW web developers and designers to discuss accessibility and usability issues in a relaxed, casual setting, and provide friendly feedback on each others’ web projects. We encourage you to bring your accessibility questions or just join us to see what others are working on. Meetings are hosted by Hadi Rangin, a web accessibility specialist with UW-IT Accessible Technology Services. Hadi has a Master’s degree in computer science and is a screen reader user himself, so these meetings are great opportunities to experience how your website might be experienced by someone using assistive technology. Meetups are typically held on the 4th Tuesday of each month, 11:00am – Noon. The agenda and Zoom URL are announced a few days prior to the event on the AccessibleWeb@U email list (see below for details about the list). If you would like to attend and are not a subscriber to this list, please contact us by sending an email to … Event interval: Single day event. Accessibility Contact: Hadi Rangin.
