From Hearing Loops to Auracast
All of our happenings provide an opportunity for our community to come together and share with each other resources that we've found helpful. When a community gathers, an amazing thing happens: its members build each other up and help the whole network to get stronger. Join us, be strengthened, and strengthen others!

Is Auracast the next assistive technology? Is now the time to request Auracast installation? What does this mean for existing hearing loops and FM/Infrared systems? This practical session will cover how to benefit from all systems, some considerations for successful deployment of Auracast and how you can help raise awareness for your needs. Practical resources and handouts will be provided.
