Registration is open for the
Accessible Technology Webinar Session titled “Developing and Implementing an
Accessibility Strategy: One Organization’s Lessons (So Far)”.
Date: January 15, 2015
Time: 1-2:30pm CST
Presenter: Ken Petri, Director,
Web Accessibility Center, Ohio State University
Description:
Ohio State is one of the
country’s largest universities. Though it has a central IT office, there are at
least 20 IT “shops” of varying sizes on campus, each serving a constituency
with unique needs, goals, and expectations. At this point, a number of
prominent law suits, both at universities and at private companies, have made
it entirely clear that accessibility must be a part of an overall approach to
IT. We have all long known that accessibility is the “right thing to do,” but
the strong advocacy of prominent civil rights groups has made it entirely clear
that we cannot just say accessibility is a noble goal. Rather it must be in
place, on the ground, part of an organization’s basic approach to information
and communications technologies at all levels.
