Web Sites

If you maintain or are responsible for a campus Web site, you will need to review your site's compliance with Section 508. You can check on the status of your site online at juno.csuchico.edu (not all campus sites are tracked yet).

In addition, there are 48 'critical' sites on campus that are required to conform to Section 508 no later than May 15, 2009. You can see if your site is on this list here.

Instructional Materials

It is the responsibility of faculty members to ensure that their instructional materials are accessible to all students including textbooks, electronic documents, multimedia and web content. Training, tutorials and other resources are available from the Technology and Learning Program to support faculty with their online course materials.
