This plan outlines essential steps to help departments comply with the ADA Title II ruling by April 2026. UNC has upheld a digital accessibility policy for several years, so much of your content may already be compliant and simply require a thorough review. The plan is designed to be scalable and action-oriented, making it particularly valuable for content in need of assessment and remediation for use after the deadline. Its straightforward structure is intentional for ease of adoption, and the Digital Accessibility Office is available to provide more specialized guidance as needed.
You can explore the three core steps of the plan, learn what to expect from third party vendors, and find helpful resources like assessment and remediation tools, webinars, and articles for further learning. Our FAQ section, which includes practical use cases, is continually growing, and we invite you to email us your questions—your inquiry could help others as well.
