[CATO] Please do this before our September meeting! CBI Proceedings for Policy 188

[Monica Olsson]

Dear CATO members,

At our last meeting, Zach helped facilitate a conversation about Policy 188 and Accessible IT Coordinators at our colleges. We discussed things like the responsibility of this type of position and the kind of technical skills and training needed. We also discussed things like where a position like this could be located at a college for effectiveness (IT vs. Compliance office vs. Disability Services), and the executive level support/buy-in that an Accessible IT Coordinator needs to be successful within the role.

We agreed to continue this conversation at our September meeting. Our co-chairs and I would like you to take some time and review the archive of accessibility materials from the UW hosted CBI (Capacity Building Institute) events for discussion. I'll send out August's Meeting Minutes shortly.
