Join us for Day 3 of KU Faculty Development Academies Week - Accessibility & Learning

Updated federal regulations on Title II of the Americans With Disabilities Act, effective April 2026, impact how digital course content is presented in Canvas. With a focus on best practices, attendees will learn how to use tools available in Canvas for reviewing - and fixing! - current course files, how to resolve issues through Microsoft's accessibility checker, and ways in which Adobe can assist in remediating pdf documents. KU's Digital Accessibility Team will be on hand all day to provide personalized deskside coaching, helping faculty deliver a dynamic digital learning environment for all students.

Wednesday, May 20th from 9 a.m. - 3:30 p.m.
Location: Kansas Union, Divine Nine Room (6th floor)
