2021 Interagency Accessibility Forum (IAAF): Resources From Microassist
Our Microassist team is excited to take part in this year’s Interagency Accessibility Forum. We have gathered resources facing stakeholders in evaluating accessibility for technology purchases in government as we launch our new online training on how to use a VPAT during the evaluation process.
Understanding the VPAT Analysis and Determination Process
In this actionable training, teams can review a supplier’s VPAT/ACR using a Standard Form with a Standard Process and arrive at a Standard, Justifiable, and Documented Conclusion.
Created by Microassist Chief Technology Officer Hiram Kuykendall
Microassist’s Understanding the VPAT Analysis and Determination Process delivers:
- A 3-hour, online, self-paced course that results in a Course Certificate upon successful completion.
