Please join us for the next installment of the monthly Employee Development Series - Digital Accessibility: Enhancing Inclusivity and Usability. This session will be presented by Vance Martin, Executive Policy Advisor for Accessibility at the University of Illinois System, and Carey Applegate, UIS Director of the Office of Digital Accessibility. Attendees will learn about the recent updates to Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act and how those new regulations will impact our campus over the next two years (and beyond). Participants will gain insights into practical strategies for designing accessible content, ensuring compliance with accessibility standards, and promoting usability for all users. Whether you’re new to the topic or seeking more advanced insights, this session will equip you with essential skills to enhance digital access in your day-to-day work at UIS.

Digital Accessibility: Enhancing Inclusivity and Usability is open to all faculty and staff and will be held on August 28th from 9-10:30 a.m. via Zoom.
