A Blueprint For Building, Maintaining, and Improving EIT Accessibility
February 18, 2016 @ 10:45 am – 1:00 pm
The webinar will last from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. so please try to arrive around 10:45.
Electronic and Information Technology (EIT) is an essential element of today’s higher education environment. As programs, services, and resources at institutions continue to expand and delivery methods are increasingly technology-centric, institutions are challenged to ensure that technology improves accessibility for all students.
For this month, WebTide will watch a webinar which will examine the action steps and compliance strategies that have been delineated in recent settlement and resolution agreements as a necessary part of effective practices and procedures.
Topics will include:
- EIT accessibility – Policies, procedures and guidelines
- Government accessibility reviews – Recent government enforcement activity and common compliance concerns
- Creating accessible websites and education materials – Recommendations
- Overcoming barriers to accessibility – Strategies and practical tips for implementation challenges
- Accessibility audits – Lessons learned
- Procuring accessible technologies – Challenges and opportunities
This webinar is sponsored by UA Office of Counsel.
