Please join the Library Services Team, part of the NYC DOE, in an engaging hands on training where we will explore making digital information accessible to all users including those who are: blind, deaf, color blind, or have impaired motor functions.

We will look at:

• What makes information accessible or inaccessible

• The tools available to evaluate accessibility

• What to be aware of when designing for the web including considerations for images, Word Documents, Excel Spreadsheets, Powerpoints, and PDFs.

This program is eligible for 5 hours of CTLE credit in Pedagogy.

The New York City Department of Education is recognized by the New York State Education Department's Office of Teaching Initiatives as an approved sponsor of CTLE for Professional Classroom Teachers, School Leaders and Level III Teaching Assistants.
