[ATcoord] Policy Swap?

[Seda, Jeremy]

Good afternoon Coordinators,

I think Big Bend's Policy is far enough in the draft process where I could share this with others.

I've adapted UMT's Electronic Information and Technology Accessibility (EITA) Policy and while this may look complete at first glance, I assure you, it's very much a draft.  Some of the things the BBCC Accessible Technology Team is trying to figure out are:


*         Dates/deadlines that are not overly aggressive, but do not allow folks to procrastinate on making their content accessible.

*         Ensuring that any other referenced standard or guideline (i.e., DCMP Standards) do not create additional, unnecessary work.

*         Proof-reading the document over and over to ensure that simple words are not making undesirable implications that we cannot live up to (i.e., "all", "entirely", "everything", etc.).

I hope this helps others and please let me know if you have any additional feedback that will improve BBCC's EITA policy.

Here is Whatcoms Policy, Procedure, Tech Request form (that starts all tech purchases campus wide), and our letter to vendors requesting VPATS.
Our accessibility tracking software is about ready to be shared. It allows end users to submit the software they use, allows us to submit VPATs and WCAG checklists, and allows us to track VPAT, WCAG, and Policy 188 requirements, notes, and feeds our public report. If you interested in seeing it I am happy to demo it and let anyone have the code if their interested.

Hi all,



Hopefully most of you have gotten your policies developed and approved. Anyone mind sharing their's with the group? A few folks have mentioned that they'd like to see what other schools have come up with policy-wise.



Cheers,

Jess
