Beyond Compliance and Onward into the Future: ADA Title II, the Sequel

Thursday, October 01, 2026 | 2:15PM–3:00PM MT
Session Type: Breakout Session
Delivery Format: Panel Session
The deadline has passed. The policies are written. The audits are underway. But when ADA Title II compliance is achieved—then what? This session explores the next chapter in digital accessibility: moving from meeting regulatory requirements to building a sustainable culture of inclusive design. While many institutions are currently focused on complying with updated ADA Title II regulations, long-term success requires embedding accessibility into everyday practices across teaching, communications, procurement, and technology. This session highlights practical strategies for making that shift—from one-time remediation efforts to ongoing accessibility-first workflows. Drawing on real-world implementation experiences, the presentation will share approaches for fostering cross-campus collaboration, empowering content creators, establishing governance and accountability structures, and using accessibility tools and audits effectively. The session will also explore how emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence, are transforming digital content creation and what that means for accessibility moving forward. Participants will leave with practical insights and actionable ideas to help their organizations move beyond compliance and build more inclusive, accessible, and future-ready digital environments.
