Digital Accessibility Workshop Series
Want to learn about digital accessibility in your courses?
As part of CNMS's ongoing commitment to inclusive excellence, CNMS is hosting a three-part Digital Accessibility Workshop Series beginning November 30, 2026.
The University System of Maryland (USM) has made digital accessibility a systemwide priority and emphasized the importance of ensuring that websites, instructional materials, and digital communications are accessible to everyone. Compliance is also essential to student recruitment, admissions, and retention. Inaccessible websites and application materials may create barriers for prospective students, potentially affecting their ability to explore our programs and complete the admissions process. These workshops will provide helpful information, practical strategies, and resources to help our faculty and staff make their digital materials and websites more accessible.
