This segment of the Enterprise Information Technology Services Web site provides guidance to UGA units regarding making Web pages accessible to persons with disabilities.

Following a brief discussion of the ethical and legal issues, the page presents the guidelines for creating accessible Web pages and provides extensive examples, often from the university’s main home page. A lengthy Q&A expands on many of the issues raised by the guidelines. A list of accessibility validators explains how these tools can identify and, in some cases, eliminate barriers to accessibility.

Any UGA unit considering its compliance with accessibility requirements should begin with the information at this site.
