Accessibility for Developers with Joe & Bruce

Let's follow the life cycle of an accessibility bug. Joe Watkins will guide us on a developer-oriented exploration of how these bugs hatch, mature, multiply, and — most importantly — how these pesky critters can be squashed. Come join in the moderated Q&A.

We will begin the evening with social time and then the presentation at 6:30 so there is plenty of time for Q&A, discussion and a bit of networking/wrap-up at the end.

Presenter: Joe Watkins (https://www.linkedin.com/in/joewatkins/) is an Accessibility Consultant with Simply Accessible (http://simplyaccessible.com/). Joe has a passion for the web and working with others to make it more usable for everyone.

Moderator: Bruce Elgort (https://bruceelgort.com/) is an instructor in the web development program at Clark College. He emphasizes accessibility from day 1 in all of his classes. Bruce is also a low vision user who himself relies on accessibility with his day-to-day activities.
