新成立的全国获得计算机职业联盟的目标是增加残疾人在各种计算机职业中的代表性，包括计算机科学、信息系统、软件开发、计算机工程、系统管理和维护以及教学。华盛顿大学（UW）计算机科学与工程系和DO-IT（残疾、机会、互联网和技术）领导了物联网计算。合作伙伴-Gallaudet大学、微软、NSF STEM残疾人区域联盟（由南缅因州大学、新墨西哥州州立大学、威斯康星州-麦迪逊大学和华盛顿大学主办）和SIGACCESS-合作者代表全国的教育、工业、政府和专业组织。这篇文章分享了残疾人在计算职业生涯中所面临的挑战的背景信息，以及您可以参与的活动。
The goal of the newly established National Alliance for Access to Computing Careers (AccessComputing) is to increase the representation of people with disabilities in a wide range of computing careers, including those in computer science, information systems, software development, computer engineering, systems management and maintenance, and teaching. The Department of Computer Science and Engineering and DO-IT (Disabilities, Opportunities, Internetworking and Technology) at the University of Washington (UW) lead AccessComputing. partners---Gallaudet University, Microsoft, the NSF Regional Alliances for Persons with Disabilities in STEM (hosted by the University of Southern Maine, New Mexico State University, the University of Wisconsin--Madison, and the UW), and SIGACCESS---and collaborators represent education, industry, government, and professional organizations nationwide. This article shares background information on challenges facing individuals with disabilities with respect to computing careers, objectives of AccessComputing, and activities in which you can participate.
