In this session, we will discuss the roadblocks that we faced at a two-year college as we tried to adopt Quality Matters, and some of the solutions we implemented to overcome these roadblocks.

Accessibility is a hot topic in higher education and for good reason—education should embrace and welcome learners of all abilities. We, as college administrators, faculty and staff, are responsible for ensuring an inclusive learning environment for all of our students.

We’ll share our road-trip experience from three perspectives: disability services coordinator, faculty and instructional designer.
