Stakeholder(s):
- Education Subcommittee: The Education Subcommittee serves as a forum for educating Federal employees in the understanding, improvement, and application
of the Section 508 law, regulations, policies, standards, and procedures. It explores ways to gather education resources and
promote their dissemination throughout the government. In the future, the subcommittee hopes to establish an IT Accessibility
clearinghouse which will identify resources for awareness, training, and educational materials as well as maintain a list
of recommended speakers to address IT accessibility issues and concerns. The Education Subcommittee has initiated a series
of webinars based on Accessibility Best Practices. The first one was held on May 24, 2012 on the topic "Ten Top Strategies
for Implementing Section 508". The archive of that webinar can be found at https://efedlink.org/allqual/resource-shared-webinars.cfm.
