Social Media for Everyone: Creating Accessible and Inclusive Content for Campus Channels

Designed for faculty and staff who manage campus accounts, this workshop provides an overview of accessibility best practices and federal standards as they apply to social media networks. Morgan Glover, director of social media strategy in University Communications, and Melanie Eley, digital accessibility manager in ITS, will guide participants through an accessibility checklist, discuss common content barriers, and learn how to conduct a self-assessment of their social media accounts. By the end of the session, attendees will have a clear roadmap for creating digital content that is accessible and understandable to the widest possible audience.
