Due to the final rule addition to the Americans with Disabilities Act, which mandates WCAG 2.1 AA compliance for all content and technology used by or associated with our institutions, digital accessibility in higher ed is getting attention like never before.
Collaboration and friendly networking between professionals will spur on our compliance efforts and bolster our spirits.
