UIC Web Accessibility Committee

Mission

The University of Illinois at Chicago Web Accessibility Committee oversees the policy and procedures relating to accessibility of online information. This committee supports the campus in the process of advancing Web accessibility through:

coordinating training and assistance with Web accessibility
providing accessibility assessment tools
providing reports and recommendations on how campus Webmasters can improve their sites to meet current best practices and established accessibility guidelines
developing policies to make online information more accessible and usable
assisting Webmasters by providing clear campus guidelines on how to improve accessibility
helping the campus prioritize efforts in creating new Web sites and modifying older Web sites.

The Web Accessibility Committee is dedicated to the long term effort of improving the accessibility of our campus Web sites, but will need the active cooperation and efforts of campus Webmasters for accessibility to be implemented at UIC.
