Join us for an overview of the ADA and WCAG standards for courses and course content, as well as tools and strategies to help make your courses ADA-compliant. In 2024, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was updated with a deadline of April 2026 for making all web and mobile content accessible to Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1, Level AA) standards. Dr. Spring Brennan will look at tips for creating course that meets these new standards as well as providing insights into common accessibility hurdles faced by our students.

Presenter is Dr. Spring Brennan who serves as CETLOE's Accessibility Specialist and holds a Ph.D. in Instructional Technology from the University of Virginia.
