Resources

The Office of Institutional Accessibility (OIA) works throughout USC to ensure an accessible environment for individuals with disabilities. To create such an environment, we wish to engage all Trojans in the shared responsibility of creating accessible programs, services, and activities. OIA offers a variety of supportive measures including consultations, education, training opportunities, and an arsenal of self-paced resources.
