An Interdisciplinary Team Model for Supporting Digital Accessibility
Digital accessibility is a critically important area in higher education, but not all institutions or departments can support a dedicated position for addressing accessibility. When faced with this same dilemma, NC State University’s Digital Education and Learning Technologies Applications (DELTA) organization formed a team to provide accessibility leadership across the organization and to coordinate with internal and university stakeholders. This team leverages their diverse backgrounds and perspectives to support our mission of providing accessible learning environments and experiences for all students. Now in our second year, we will share our unique team approach to supporting digital accessibility as well as our structure, planning approach, successes, challenges, current initiatives, and plans for the future.
