Technology 可访问性 Initiative Committee

The Metropolitan State University of 丹佛 Technology 可访问性 Initiative is charged with Advancing 密歇根州立大学丹佛’s ongoing commitment to provide access to information resources, 技术, and related services to individuals with disabilities.

This provides a scope that is broad, but focused on technology-related materials and will include areas such as: web content, instructional materials, kiosk/digital signage, training materials, the online learning environment, the procurement of technology systems and services, and a process for assessing the accessibility of these systems and services. This initiative does not encompass assessment of facilities or architectural barriers related to accessibility.

The Technology 可访问性 Initiative will be working to develop relevant policies and 程序, as well as identifying specific resources to assist the campus community with the implementation of these changes. A tentative timeline for the work of this group is:

• Spring 2012 – Draft Web Content 可访问性 policy.
• 2012-2015 – Development of a campus implementation plan for achieving compliance with Web Content 可访问性 policy, including the identification of specific areas of responsibility and resources.
• 2016 – Implement evaluation processes, web governance software, account management. Begin baseline evaluation and pilot group assessment. Identify and prioritize issues and web sites.
• Ongoing – 支持 the campus community to achieve compliance with adopted policies, 程序, and implementation plans.
