Guide: Make IT Accessible

We are committed to ensuring that online information and experiences can be used, understood, and participated in by all, without barriers. Learn how to put standards and best practices into action to make digital life at UCSC accessible.

Report any barriers that prevent accessing or using digital content or resources. This information is also located in the footer of all UCSC websites.

Don’t assume your users don’t have accessibility needs.
Any one can experience disabilities that are situational (working in a loud environment) or temporary (having an arm in a cast), or develop a permanent one.

Learn more about digital accessibility and understand your responsibilities, whether you are a staff, faculty, student member of the university.
