Develop a Realistic, Institution-wide Strategy That Improves Accessibility, Reduces Legal Risk & Creates Sustainable Long-term Processes

As colleges and universities work to comply with the U.S. Department of Justice's Title II Web Accessibility Rule, many are discovering that achieving digital accessibility extends far beyond fixing a handful of webpages. Institutions must evaluate thousands of websites, PDFs, videos, forms, learning resources, and third-party platforms while navigating limited resources, competing priorities and evolving compliance expectations. The challenge is not simply understanding the law. Instead, it's developing a realistic, institution-wide strategy that improves accessibility, reduces legal risk and creates sustainable long-term processes.

Join us on October 13, 2026 when our expert presenter will help you move beyond compliance anxiety and develop an actionable roadmap for implementing Title II web accessibility requirements across your institution. Rather than focusing exclusively on legal mandates or highly technical standards, this online training session will translates complex regulations into practical guidance that administrators, accessibility coordinators, IT professionals, communications staff, instructional designers, faculty and institutional leaders can immediately apply.

You will learn how to prioritize remediation efforts, establish effective governance structures, engage stakeholders across campus, and integrate accessibility into everyday institutional operations. You'll leave with proven strategies to build a culture of accessibility, strengthen compliance efforts, improve the digital experience for all users, and position your institution for long-term success—without treating accessibility as a one-time project.

Topics Covered

Leave the webinar prepared with strategies to confidently:

• Understand the scope of the Title II Web Accessibility Rule and identify which digital assets fall within its requirements.
• Recognize common accessibility barriers in webpages, PDFs, videos, and online forms and implement practical strategies for addressing them.
• Create processes that incorporate accessibility into content creation rather than relying solely on remediation after publication.
• Build a campus culture in which accessibility is viewed as a shared institutional responsibility and an aspect of inclusive design, rather than merely a legal compliance obligation.
• Bridge the gap between law, policy, and implementation by translating complex regulatory requirements into practical decision making tools for professionals across campus.
