Accessibility Training and Resources

The following additional resources are available in addition to those presented on this site and offered throughout the year at Highline College.

SBCTC Accessibility Training

SBCTC’s Accessibility Center hosts resources and information to help advance web and IT accessibility awareness, understanding, and implementation. We’re highlighting the following sections, but there’s more to explore as well!

SBCTC’s Accessibility Micro-Courses

SBCTC offers a variety of accessibility-related micro-courses. Each course is approximately 3 hours in length and focuses on particular skills and/or content creation programs. Current micro-courses include: Understanding Accessibility, Accessible Design Concepts, Universal Design, Accessible Word Documents, Accessible PPT, Email Accessibility, Accessible PDFs, Canvas Accessibility. Participants are awarded with digital badges upon completion of each micro-course. Participants who complete five micro-courses (15 hours) will also receive a certificate from SBCTC.

Registering in the accessibility micro-courses will give participants ongoing access to the courses. There are no course start/stop dates. Users can remove themselves from the Canvas course at any point.
