Digital Accessibility Resources from the U.S. Department of Education and the ADA National Network:  Information, Guidance, & Training on Americans with Disabilities Act

This 20-part video series is geared towards the education community, but helpful to all users of technology. This series offers practical “how to” information to assist with compliance such as how people with disabilities use technology, applicable Federal laws, and how to identify, address, or avoid many technological barriers that interfere with the ability of parents and students with disabilities fully to participate in educational opportunities.

Please help us by sharing the video series with your staff and colleagues throughout your institution and the educational community. We thank you for your ongoing commitment to ensuring your online communications are accessible to everyone. And don’t forget: we are available for ongoing support; just reach out by email to OCRWebAccessTA@ed.gov.
