This guide was created to support the students, faculty, and staff at Umpqua Community College.
It began as part of an OpenOregon OER training on Strategic Digital Accessibility (January 2023 cohort). Following months of training sessions with various other colleges around the state the taskforce here at Umpqua Community College reviewed current offerings, information, regulations, and law. Ultimately, the taskforce decided that creating a guide to inform the college and its constituents about accessibility in all forms was the ideal way to showcase the materials located/created. It is the aim of this taskforce to assist in the creation of a college-wide Accessibilities Committee to continuously review policy, procedure, and materials put forth, and shared by the College as a whole.
Taskforce members included:
