[CATO] Monica's DOJ Ruling Roadshow - Feedback Wanted

[Monica Olsson]

Hi CATO!

For those of you that don't know, I have been BUSY presenting to various groups about the DOJ web accessibility ruling. My goal is to help people understand the requirements, what is covered, circle back to Policy 188, and help illustrate the kind of work that needs to get done along with some cost considerations to chew on. So far, this has included STAC, WATC-Tech (Presidents) Disability Support Services Council, eLearning Council, Library Council, and the Public Information Commission and soon the Human Resources Management Commission.

On Friday I am speaking with ITC, the Information Technology Commission.<https://www.sbctc.edu/colleges-staff/commissions-councils/itc/> I plan to ask this group to help me update ensure accuracy of my list of Accessible IT Coordinators. My question to CATO: what would be the top two or three "take home points" or "call to action" items you would like our system's IT directors to hear? I want your feedback.

Tomorrow I am traveling to Grays Harbor to speak at the State Board's Board at their meeting and I suspect that several presidents will also be in attendance. The state's system of 34 community and technical colleges is overseen by a nine-member board appointed by the governor with the consent of the Senate.

Thank you!
Monica
