[Nfbnet-members-list] Participants needed for data analysis research at NFB national convention

[Blake, Lou Ann]

The below research participant solicitation is 
being provided for informational purposes only. 
The National Federation of the Blind has no 
involvement in this research, but we believe that 
it may contribute to our research mission.

Do you work in data all day? Do you dream of 
spreadsheets and hold a special place in your 
heart for Excel? Then the American Institute of 
Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) needs your 
analytical mind at the NFB National Convention!
The value of data analytics and related concepts 
has increased within the accounting profession. 
Future CPAs need to evolve their skillsets, 
including visually-impaired professionals who may 
have unique needs when performing data-related tasks.
To better understand the impact this may have on 
the future of the Uniform CPA Examination®, we 
will conduct a study that requires a select group 
of NFB members who work in financial-related or 
data-heavy fields. Through interviews to be held 
during the NFB Convention, we hope to identify 
the unique needs of those who work with data. The 
information we collect will determine the best 
approach for future assessments of data 
manipulation and the analysis of large data sets.
If you'd like to share your insights, register by

anonymous, and not attributed to any individual. *
Participation requires only an hour of your time 
July 5th through July 7th and you will receive a 
$50 thank you gift card! Participant must be 21 years of age or older.
