Extended Abstract: 

This session will discuss the best practices that have been implemented at YSU to ensure that online course materials are accessible to all learners.  Since the the fall of 2014 YSU has made a concerted effort to make electronic materials accessible for our visitors and learners.  Through this process, we have developed various skills and knowledge on what approach to this work is best.   This session will discuss these best practices to help institutions implement processes and procedures for their own online learners. The task can be daunting but through various technologies, staff support, and departmental collaborations there is a way to meet the demands of learners with accessibility needs.
