You might have heard about new federal digital accessibility requirements that go into effect next year.
By April 24, 2026, all public entities, including institutions of higher education, must ensure their websites and mobile apps comply with ADA Title II and WCAG 2.1 AA.
NC State is launching a 3-step process to help us meet this new requirement and commit to creating an accessible digital environment.
Anyone who creates digital content for Extension should be involved in this 3-step process, beginning with learning about digital accessibility best practices.
Two basic trainings are being offered to help you understand your role. Sign up to learn how to remove barriers for users in all the digital content you create, including web articles, social media posts, emails, and more.- Understanding Digital Accessibility: Your Legal Responsibility at NC State
