Digital accessibility training for faculty and staff
Introduction
UIC is undertaking a broad, campus-wide initiative to ensure that all digital content is accessible for all members of our community. The initiative strives to bring the university into compliance with ADA Title II regulations by the federally mandated deadline of April 24, 2026.
All faculty or staff who produce digital content (e.g., websites, emails, social media, video, digital documents or learning materials) are urged to take seriously and participate in this initiative to promote equity, innovation and student success at UIC.
