Dear Colleagues:

 

The 13th Annual Accessing Higher Ground: Accessible
Media, Web and Technology Conference will take place
November 15‑19, 2010 in Westminster, CO, Accessing
Higher Ground focuses on the implementation and
benefits of Universal Design, accessible media and
Assistive Technology in the university, business and
public setting.

 

 AHG attracts the leading practitioners and decision
makers in the field of campus accessibility, and
accessible media in all environments. We invite you
to review this year’s rich agenda at
http://www.colorado.edu/ATconference. There are
currently many great airfare deals to Denver for the
middle of November; last year, the conference moved
to the beautiful 4‑star Westin Hotel in
Westminster but room rates are still very reasonable
($125 per night single includes Internet & a $10
meal coupon), and exhibit fees are affordable ($590
includes exhibit hall booth, access to all
conference proceedings and the Wednesday keynote
lunch).

 

 There is over a 10% early registration discount for
the main conference until Oct. 1
