Make your course content accessible.
Accessibility deadline
April 26, 2027
Digital course content must meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA accessibility requirements under ADA Title II.
For faculty: the practical next step is not to read the regulation. Start with the course materials your students use and let UDOIT help you find the barriers.
Start here
Run UDOIT.
UDOIT scans Canvas content and course files, groups the issues it finds, and gives you repair tools for many common problems. Treat it as your starting point—not as a test you have to “pass.”
You do not have to fix everything at once. Start with one repeated issue type, fix what you can, and come back later.
