Site Summary:

Web Accessibility In Mind (WebAIM) is administered through a grant provided by the Learning Anywhere Anytime Program Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education. Our goal is to improve accessibility to online learning opportunities for all people; in particular to improve accessibility for individuals with disabilities who currently may have a difficult time getting access to postsecondary online learning opportunities. We will accomplish our goals by:

Disseminate materials that raise awareness and assist postsecondary institutions in identifying and solving web accessibility problems.
Create a systematic model for training and technical assistance to support the development of accessible web sites.
Refine a web authoring tool (Blackboard) that supports web accessibility at post-secondary institutions.
Develop a model for institutional coordination and reform to support web accessibility.
