DASS Information and Files

Digital Accessibility Staff Series Information and Files

Do you work with department or college handbooks, policies, forms, accreditation reports, flyers, or other digital documents? We’d love to have you join us for a Digital Accessibility Staff Series! If you previously attended a DASS, we invite you to join us again as there have been many changes since our last series.

Meeting Days: December 15th-December 19th

Meeting Times: 1:00-3:00pm

Meeting Location: UCE 116 and Zoom (all sessions will be recorded)

In this series, we’ll explore the basics of what can be fixed using automated tools (e.g., MS Word’s Accessibility Checker and Panorama) and what needs to be remediated in a PDF editor (e.g., FoxIT or Adobe). We’ll also explore ways to remediate documents in a PDF editor before sending documents electronically or posting them digitally.

Tentative Schedule:

• OPTIONAL 12/15 from 10am-noon: Accessibility Catch-up Session (Microsoft and Google’s Accessibility Checkers)

• 12/15: Introduction, MS Word, and Panorama (Optional morning session—see below)

• 12/16: Panorama and PDFs Part I

• 12/17: PDFs Part II

• 12/18: PDF’s Part III

• 12/19: Special Topics Breakout Sessions
