Some of the Interim Technical Guidelines appear to be too burdensome. What are my options?
The Interim Technical Guidelines were developed using the U.S. Access Board’s Section 508 Standards and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines developed by the World Wide Web Consortium as benchmarks in developing web accessibility standards that comply with the University’s legal obligation to provide equal access to the University’s programs, services, and activities. The Interim Technical Guidelines were issued separate from the Web Accessibility Policy so that they could be adapted as legal standards change and circumstances warrant modification. The University community is encouraged to provide feedback on the Interim Technical Guidelines to the Policy Implementation Resource Team (PIRT) during the website assessment phase. PIRT will consider all of the feedback it receives and make adjustments to the Interim Technical Guidelines as appropriate. The Policy also provides for an exception mechanism if compliance with the Policy would fundamentally alter the nature of a University
