The annual Interagency Accessibility Forum (IAAF) provides a venue for federal accessibility professionals, developers, designers, project managers, leadership and many others to exchange best practices in managing and implementing digital accessibility imperatives including Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act.

Save the Date

Please save the date for the 11th annual Interagency Accessibility Forum (IAAF) to be held virtually on Wednesday, November 13, and Thursday, November 14, 2024. We hope you can attend this exciting and informative virtual event. More information will be available over the summer, with registration opening in early fall. Look out for announcements via email and on this page.

Why a virtual event?

Planning an annual conference at the start of the fiscal year is challenging. To avoid these challenges and ensure better attendance, speaker availability, and partnerships, we are moving the IAAF conference from the fall to the spring. Because of this transition, the 2024 and 2025 IAAF conferences will be only six months apart, making it impractical to plan two in-person events simultaneously and also more difficult for some people to attend both conferences so close together. Therefore, we’ve made the 2024 conference a virtual one.

Planning for the 12th annual IAAF, scheduled for May 2025, has already begun. We are working on securing cosponsors and event space in the Washington, D.C., area. Updates on the 2025 IAAF will be shared via email and at Section508.gov/IAAF/.

Over the years, conference attendees have heard from a range of presenters, panelists, and keynote speakers across a variety of topics, perspectives, and experiences.
