Technology Accessibility Liaisons

As part of the University’s technology accessibility efforts, the Technology Accessibility team in the Office of Information Technology is tasked with annually auditing the accessibility status of every website in the UA web landscape. To complete this audit, we must accurately determine all of the sites under UA purview. An accessibility liaison from each campus area is selected to handle this assignment and the forthcoming audit.

The accessibility liaison will be asked to

  • Review a list of sites connected to each college, division, or school. This list will include any UA sites owned, managed, or maintained by faculty, staff, or students in each campus area and is not limited to sites directly managed by the area’s technology team.
  • Alert us to any sites that
    • Need to be removed because they are no longer valid
    • Are not part of your college, division, or school web landscape
    • Are not listed here, but are a part of your area’s web responsibility.
  • Receive and review the accessibility audit results.
  • Work with our area to make plans to address any accessibility needs, including conveying the importance of this effort to others in each college, division, or school.

Website Accessibility Dashboard

The Website Accessibility Dashboard is a tool that allows accessibility liaisons to monitor websites for accessibility in addition to providing a location to update the details of websites in each division. The dashboard includes a help section to assist in navigating the interface.  

To access the dashboard, liaisons should visit the Website Accessibility Dashboard site and log in with their myBama username and password.  

Please let us know if you have any questions or comments by emailing accessibility@ua.edu.

Technology Accessibility Liaisons

Technology accessibility liaisons were selected by their Deans or Vice Presidents to assist campus areas with technology accessibility awareness and responsibilities. For any technology accessibility concern, users can contact accessibility@ua.edu or the area liaison.
