CUNY’s Digital Accessibility Initiative Speaking Tour
Join us for the Digital Accessibility Initiative Speaking Tour with Laura Todd, Technology Trainer (CUNY Central/CIS), to learn more about CUNY’s Digital Accessibility Initiative and the new self-paced Digital Accessibility course in Brightspace.
Date: Monday, September 28, 2026
Time: 12:15 p.m. – 1:30 p.m.

The talk will be centered around three key questions:
What is digital accessibility? A high-level overview of what digital accessibility means and the changing legal and policy landscape.
Why does it matter here at CUNY? A look at how digital accessibility supports equitable access for our students, faculty, and staff with disabilities (both permanent and situational/temporary) and why it is especially important now.
What can we do? Practical ways we can all support digital accessibility best practices, including through the new self-paced Digital Accessibility course in Brightspace.
