Florida AHEAD highly values the input and contributions of our membership base, as well as our partners across the various higher educational institutions in Florida. We provide networking options through a ListServ, professional development opportunities, and collaboration through our consortia.
Consortia
- Accommodated Testing Consortium
- Meets twice in the Fall and Spring and once in the Summer. This consortium serves as a sustainable community of learning and as a resource to connect/collaborate with campus disability and access services colleagues with interest or direct involvement in providing accommodated testing for students with disabilities.
- Electronic Information Technology (EIT) Consortium
- Meets every other month beginning in January on the Third or Fourth Thursday at 1:00 PM ET. This consortium provides professional development speaker sessions and encourages Florida institutions to present their talent within the broad session topics.
