Accessibility at CSU

Cleveland State University is committed to complying with federal law and providing the most inclusive learning environment possible. CSU has developed policy, standards and guidance for the accessibility of Cleveland State University's electronic and information technology (EIT).

The Center for eLearning provides a number of services to faculty to promote the development of accessible course materials. Throughout the academic year, we host workshops on accessibility issues in collaboration with other units on campus. See our Training page for upcoming opportunities. Additionally, resources for faculty have been developed and are available online to be used as guides and tutorials. They include: 

• Accessibility Checklist for Faculty and Course Developers (Word format)

• Accessibility Checklist for Instructors (Online, expandable Word format)

• Best Practices in Accessible Online Design (Open PressBook by Heather Caprette)

• Blackboard Ally (tool integrated with Blackboard to identify accessibility issues and offer alternative formats for students
