November’s moving along briskly, and as our normal WebPub Lunch last-Wednesday-of-the-month falls on the day before Thanksgiving this year, let’s meet up next week instead!
We’ll be joined this month for a conversation with University Compliance Service’s Jaime Davis and Jason Garcia along with Paul Grotevant of ITS Campus Solutions about the recent federal investigation into UT’s accessibility compliance:
U.S. Office of Civil Rights investigation into UT Austin’s Web Accessibility compliance
Join Jason, Jaime and Paul as they discuss the ongoing federal investigation on UT Austin’s web accessibility. They will talk about the history leading up to the investigation, the investigation itself, and share lessons learned to ensure webpages are compliant with federal regulation. They’ll also be seeking your input on ways to continually improve this crucial aspect of UT’s web publishing operations.
