IT Accessibility Checklist Help

Checklist Item: We have a designated staff member and/or committee who assures that services are accessible to students with disabilities and responds to requests for accommodations.

NOTE: Each link on this page will open in a new window.

The role of providing individual accommodations for students with disabilities who need them is typically played by a special education director (K-12) or a disability services director (postsecondary). These individuals sometimes work as part of a larger team that identifies and delivers appropriate accommodations.

In addition to providing individual accommodations, this individual should be a major participant in the process of information technology planning and evaluation, since they bring to the table a unique knowledge of the needs of students with disabilities at your school and of the barriers these students face.
