Occasionally\, we’ll feature special guests who are thought leaders in the accessibility space. \nNo presentations. No pressure. Just real conversation. \nParticipation is easy—register via Zoom and drop in. You’ll also gain access to a shared space where attendees can exchange resources\, tools\, and ideas to make our events more inclusive for all. \nLet’s connect\, learn\, and build more accessible experiences—one conversation at a time. \nZoom Registration Link:  https://cogentexpert.zoom.us/meeting/register/dx7vedH0TiCExqPRXFuGgg URL:https://www.pcma.org/event/accessibility-exchange-a-community-conversation-26/ CATEGORIES:• Education,• Pacific Northwest,Chapters,Industry Calendar ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.pcma.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Accessibility-Exchange-Web-Banner-B7LJqZ.png ORGANIZER;CN="PCMA%20Pacific%20Northwest%20Chapter":MAILTO:pacificnorthwest@pcma.org END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
