Web Accessibility Group (WAG): The Changing Legal Landscape for Video Accessibility in Higher Education

October 7, 2015 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm

Presenters: Art Morgan, VP of Partner Development and Dr. Kevin Erler, Co-founder, Automatic Sync Technologies

Session Description:
With video becoming a key component in educators’ tool kits, it is essential that schools not only understand, but employ video accessibility best practices. While the Department of Justice has long been actively enforcing accessibility regulations, recent class action suits against prominent universities have brought renewed attention to the importance of closed captioning, both in terms of the scope and the quality of captioning. In this webinar, we will describe relevant accessibility compliance issues and recent enforcement changes that schools should be aware of. We will also discuss the implications of these changes for educational institutions and provide guidance on best practices to address these implications.
