Disability Services staff invites you to session on ‘access to instruction’

“A Clear Standard for Access to Instruction” is the topic for a national audioconference that will have a local link-up courtesy of UW-Green Bay’s Disability Services Office. The program runs from 2 to 3:30 p.m. CDT Thursday, Aug. 29. RSVPs may be sent to niemil@uwgb.edu or dis@uwgb.edu. Offered by AHEAD (the Association on Higher Education and Disability), the audioconference will assess the impact of a July settlement announced by the U.S. Justice Department involving Louisiana Tech University and a complaint about inaccessible course materials. An experts panel will review highlights of recent cases, discuss campus obligations for accessibility in online environments and outline concrete steps for the future.
