Digital Accessibility

Making technology accessible and effective.
In this Section

Accessible content and courses remove barriers for students with disabilities, allowing them to fully participate in academic life and pursue their educational goals.

The University of Wisconsin-Stout is committed to making technology accessible and effective for individuals across the full spectrum of abilities. 

The investment we make in accessible content multiplies in value—students engage more deeply, understand more thoroughly, and participate more fully in their educational journey. When we design with accessibility in mind, we create pathways for unexpected discoveries, meaningful connections, and remarkable learning moments.

Our commitment to accessibility reflects our belief that knowledge should never be limited by how someone navigates the digital world.
