Description
Ensure Compliance with New Regulations
Updates to Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) add digital accessibility requirements affecting all government and government-funded organizations including public Higher Education institutions. For the first time in the Nation’s history, there are now formal standards for digital accessibility that must be met by all public entities – including your institution. The deadline for compliance for many organizations is only two months away.
Join our experienced presenter as she explains what is and is not covered under the regulations; identifies key internal and external resources for remediation and accessible content creation; and provides a roadmap for creating, refining, assessing, and executing an effective, sustainable digital accessibility plan. You will leave with essential actions and takeaways that will protect the Civil Rights of individuals with disabilities, significantly reduce legal risk, limit liability, and provide a strategic approach to access that can be tailored to an institution’s individual needs.
Take this opportunity to demystify digital access and be a key contributor to your Institutions’ success - get all of your questions answered!
