In June of 2019, the SUNY Board of Trustees approved a mandate for all 64 SUNY campuses with regard to Electronic Information Technology and Accessibility.\u00a0As a result of this mandate, the Center for Access and Assistive Technology (CAAT) has identified\u00a0Deque\u00a0University<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0SensusAccess<\/strong>\u00a0as viable tools for faculty and staff as they provide\u00a0accessible electronic content to the campus community.<\/p>\n SensusAccess\u00a0is a tool that may be utilized by the college community to create a more inclusive and accessible document. As an employee of Hudson Valley Community College, you now have the ability to upload documents and receive them back in an accessible format via your e-mail.\u00a0The\u00a0SensusAccess link<\/a>\u00a0is available on the CAAT website under the Assistive Technology tab.<\/p>\n Deque University provides self-paced training courses on accessibility for online settings. SUNY has graciously provided all SUNY institutions with a one year membership, so the courses are free! Visit the CAAT website to sign up for Deque U<\/a> and get started. The courses run from beginner to advanced and are geared for faculty, staff and IT professionals.<\/p>\n
