Creating accessible digital content helps ensure everyone can engage with courses, websites, documents, multimedia, and other digital resources.
The Digital Accessibility team works with faculty, staff, and campus units to improve the accessibility of digital content while supporting UNCG’s efforts to comply with federal and institutional accessibility requirements. Whether you’re creating a Canvas course, drafting a document, developing a website, or exploring accessibility best practices, the team can help you build accessibility into your work from the beginning.
How Can Digital Accessibility Services Help You?
The Digital Accessibility team provides guidance, training, consultation, and technology support to help create more accessible digital content.
The team can help with:
- Accessibility requirements and best practices for digital content
- Accessible Canvas course design and instructional materials
- Accessible website design for web content creators and site administrators
- Document accessibility for Word, PowerPoint, PDF, and other common file formats
- Accessibility reviews and consultations

Accessibility Benefits Everyone
Accessibility isn’t just about compliance. Content that is easy to navigate and understand is essential for people with disabilities, but it can also make digital content easier for everyone to use.
Building accessibility into your work helps people focus on your message rather than spending time figuring out how to navigate or interact with your content.
