Beyond The Deadline: Making Web Accessibility in Higher Education Sustainable
March 17 @ 11:00 am – 12:00 pm
The April 2026 Title II deadline isn’t the finish line—it’s the starting gate. There’s a world of difference between doing a giant one-time update and continuous accessibility that needs to be built into every higher ed website infrastructure.
Join Pantheon, New City, and EdTech Connect to learn how to build sustainable accessibility operations that scale across your entire web presence.
In this session, you’ll learn:
- How institutions are moving beyond one-time audits to establish continuous WCAG compliance—and why that shift makes accessibility routine operations rather than recurring emergencies,
- Operational frameworks for embedding accessibility into daily and monthly workflows rather than treating it as a project,
- Why automated scans must be paired with manual testing, including keyboard, screen reader, and colorblindness simulation—to catch what automation misses and filter what it gets wrong,
- Real-world examples from dozens of extensive higher ed projects to that build in an established accessibility governance framework: what worked, what didn’t, and lessons learned,
- Platform capabilities that reduce manual effort through centralized template management, automated testing, and bulk operations across multi-site environments,
- Risk mitigation strategies for maintaining WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance as your web ecosystem grows and evolves.
Whether you’re staring down a backlog or working on a new website, you’ll leave with actionable frameworks for making accessibility a sustainable practice, not a recurring emergency. Link to virtual training provided upon registration.
