Digital Accessibility Training

Additional resources:

• Upcoming events and trainings with Instructional Technology – We have fed in their upcoming trainings below, however they also frequently post links and information for external trainings, so we recommend following their myUMBC group.
  • Did you know? You can also submit an RT referral for individual faculty to work with a member of Instructional Technology’s staff, or put in a request for their team to lead a training for your entire department!
• Self-enroll in Instructional Technology’s asynchronous CoRE module – The version currently available was built for faculty utilizing Blackboard Ally, but can be taken by anyone and the underlying principles are the same. Specifically-tailored versions for staff and students will be coming soon.
• USM’s upcoming events and trainings – They also have links to all previous recorded sessions and recorded sessions from the Maryland Department of Disabilities.
