UIC Accessibility Liaisons
What is the Accessibility Liaison program? Heading link
The Accessibility Liaison program aims to enhance UIC’s commitment to digital accessibility and inclusion. This initiative will bridge our current Information and Communications Technology Accessibility policy, the growing Digital Accessibility operations within Technology Solutions, our partnerships with the Office for Access and Equity and other campus units, and the evolving accessibility standards in higher education to address ADA Title II changes. For more information about the program, please visit the UIC Accessibility Liaison Program Page.
The role of an Accessibility Liaison is crucial in our efforts to create an accessible and inclusive educational environment. They are responsible for developing and implementing accessibility plans, collaborating to improve digital accessibility, and serving as the primary point of contact for their unit.
