In a world of increasing online curriculum you need to become and stay compliant

Use of the internet to serve students and staff is changing the face of education. A top-performing academic environment includes Web properties that comply with regulations for electronic information and reach all members of the academic community, regardless of ability.

Several laws involve compliance of Web content in education. Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, requires inclusion in education for all, regardless of ability, as a condition for federal funding. Section 508 bars the federal government from using, maintaining, or procuring electronic goods and Information Technology services that are not fully accessible to people with disabilities. Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act applies to all places of education in providing disability access. Compliance with these statutes can make a difference in funding for your institution.

Information Technology aids in day-to-day administration and the delivery of curriculum at your educational institution. Could you benefit from an automated Web compliance solution to ensure that you are reaching your e-learning goals?

Why Deque

At Deque, we know that a one-size Web compliance product does not fit all educational institutions. Whether it is acquiring federal funding, meeting the e-learning needs of all students and faculty or using One Accessible World for your curriculum, you can rely on Deque for Web compliance.

Across the Web, accessibility levels are low. The challenge is teaching our students, Web developers and webmasters of the future, about the importance of accessibility.
