Partners

Partners are a crucial component of the AccessComputing project. They provide support in the following areas:

engage with other partners in online discussions and monthly meetings;
participate in project training, access professional development, and learn inclusive practices;
create nationwide resources to increase accessibility in computing education; and
commit to taking steps that will help computing educators and employers, professional organizations, and other stakeholders develop accessible programs and share effective practices nationwide

Furthermore, AccessComputing partners benefit from becoming leaders in accessibility, gaining access to top-ranking accessibility experts, and expanding their departments, organizations, or workplaces with a wider pool of talented individuals.
