[ATcoord] [EXTERNAL] - How to read a VPAT webinar recording and slide deck

Thanks, Doug! I didn't know that you can add chapters to a YouTube video. That certainly would make navigating a longer recording much easier and more accessible. Thanks for the tip.

Hi Monica,

Thanks for sharing that.  I want to check it out.  Was taking part in an interview panel to replace Karen (insert sad emoji here).

One thing I find helpful on long videos that YouTube allows channel owners to add in are chapter/section break points.  There are several videos out there on how to do it.  I read one that said you need to have the 0:00 too or it won’t work.

Here is one but maybe you’ll find a better, more concise one:  https://youtu.be/JTkHguGaTNs

For Terrill’s here are some I made by looking over the transcript quickly:

0:00

2:58 Monica Olsson introduces Terrill Thompson

3:42 Terrill begins presentation about VPATs

6:52 Acronyms explained

10:38 “I honestly don’t think I have seen a fully accessible product.” (in 20 years)

11:31 Accessibility Rider

13:57 VPAT needs to be new and accurate

16:24 Washington Policy 188

19:02 Formation of the W3C

20:36 ALT tags for images

24:58 Structure of a web page

26:46 Form field labels

32:02 ARIA

40:02 VPAT version 2.3

43:11 Conformance level

46:24 Company’s accessibility contact person

49:16 Who completed this VPAT?

72:15 The HECVAT

76:22 Question and Answer section

If you copy and paste that into the appropriate field for this YouTube video then viewers can click on those and jump to them.

Also saw that they mis-spelled Terrill’s name and within 3Play tool you can do something similar to Word’s find and replace to find Terrille and replace it with Terrill.  I have seen the save function takes sometimes as long as 10 minutes to fully update and THEN when you again download the .srt caption file it is now up to date and can be added to YouTube.

And now to go watch his video and maybe put it on a faster playback time.

CAUTION: This email came from a non-OC system or external source. Beware of phishing and social engineering!

Earlier this month, SBCTC hosted a webinar with guest speaker Terrill Thompson from UW.

The webinar was titled, "How to read a VPAT."

Anyone who makes IT procurement decisions is assuming risk on behalf of their institution. As the risk owner, you must take steps to ensure the product or service you're procuring is accessible to all users, including those with disabilities. How do you do that? A standard form used by IT vendors to document their level of accessibility is the Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT). This session will explore VPATs in detail and provide guidance on how to read them, and what you can learn from them, without being an accessibility expert.

  *   The slide deck is attached to this email.
