[Accessibleweb] Web Accessibility/Usability Meet-up, Tue 9/23/25 at 11 AM PT

[Hadi Rangin via Accessibleweb]

Hello accessibility minded friends and colleagues,

Please join us tomorrow Tuesday 9/23 at 11 AM for another exciting, informal, and friendly Web Accessibility/Usability meet-up.

Agenda

Transforming from PDF to HTML
The Graduate Medical Education department is in the process of converting over 50 policy documents from PDF to HTML, with Jessica ensuring that the new format is more accessible. In this session, we'll review an example that uses tables and discuss accessibility and usability considerations, including the use of lists inside a table as well as handling footnotes.

Open agenda
Reviewing your site/application for accessibility is the main component of this meet-up and we all learn from such reviews.
We're always looking for websites and topics to discuss! Please bring your questions, concerns, ideas, and website and we will be glad to add to the agenda.

About Monthly Web Accessibility/Usability Meet-up
The Monthly Web Accessibility/Usability meet-up is a place for accessibility minded colleagues to casually reviewing and discussing your projects. This generally includes lots of hands-on testing and code review. If you are working on a project and would like to get accessibility feedback from your peers, please let us know and we will add it to the agenda. We always encourage you to bring your own sites and topics, as it is a great learning experience for everyone.

How to Join the Mailing List
We send our announcements typically a week prior to the meetup through various internal mailing lists, including the accessibleweb mailing list - which is open to the public. Please subscribe to that list to receive the announcements if you haven't already done it yet. You can do so by accessing this link:
