Join Tre Sandlin, Instructional Accessibility Specialist, for a Community of Practice dedicated to Accessibility! We are partnering with the Office of Diversity Equity and Inclusion, Disability Access Center, and Human Resources. In this Community of Practice, we are dedicating space to understanding the history, language, and core principles of inclusive learning environments as well as highlighting what resources are available to you and your students. Together, we'll explore key terminology, foundational concepts, and practical strategies for creating accessible classrooms and digital content. Whether you're an educator or an advocate for equity, this community offers collaborative learning and critical reflection on the past, present, and future of accessibility in education. Let’s work together to build learning spaces where everyone belongs.

This group will meet in fall term, five Monday afternoons from 2 to 4 pm.
