CAPED Convention 2026 was held at Renaissance Palm Springs Hotel, 888 East Tahquitz Canyon Way, Palm Springs, CA 92262.

The published audience was postsecondary disability/access services professionals and educators.

It is most useful for disability and access services professionals and faculty at California colleges, since the convention is run by the California Association for Postsecondary Education and Disability, was co-chaired by staff from Mt. San Antonio College and Pasadena City College, and centred on inclusive practices and training.

Attendees at higher education and disability services conferences usually wear business casual, such as slacks, blouses or collared shirts, often with a cardigan or blazer. Palm Springs in October is warm, so light breathable clothing and a layer for air-conditioned meeting rooms are practical.
