Conferences

Information and resources about our annual AHEAD conference.

The 2010 Preconference Institutes provide opportunities for attendees to participate in intensive, topic-specific, workshop-style events taught by notable and well-respected experts in their field. Ranging from 3 1/2 hours to two full days, the Institutes are an outstanding chance for Conference attendees to receive in-depth professional development.

We have scheduled two informative poster sessions for the 2010 Conference. Attendees will have the opportunity to visit all poster presentations, so pre-selection is not necessary. Below is a list of accepted poster presentations to date.

Accessible Computing Courses Lead to High-Tech Careers for Students with Disabilities
Lyla Crawford, DO-IT, University of Washington

Pre-selection is not necessary for these lunch time presentations on timely topics, but we want you to know about them so you can plan ahead. Please see the on-site Program Book for details.

As you select your concurrent session choices, please note several vendor-sponsored sessions during Concurrent Block 8 on Friday morning. These sessions are provided to give attendees additional information about some products and services.
Neither AHEAD nor PEPNet expressly endorses any particular commercial entity.

Regarding Universal Access and Environmental Responsibility
AHEAD and PEPNet both continue to open new doors and set new examples for conference implementation that elevate universal access, environmental responsibility, and unparalleled professional development for those involved in the intersection of disability and higher education.
