TOPIC: Alternative Text Production Center
For students with print-related disabilities to be able to fully participate in courses, educational materials may need to be provided in an alternate text format, such as braille or large print. However, producing alternate formats can be time consuming, expensive, and require specific skills that are beyond the training of campus staff and faculty.
The Alternate Text Production Center (ATPC) is funded by the California Community Colleges Chancellor's Office to provide free, on-demand alternate media production services to assist colleges in meeting the needs of their students with print-related disabilities.
In this Accessibility Office Hours session, Jeff Baugher, ATPC Director, will present a general overview of the Alternate Text Production Center. Topics will include current productions offered, how to best use the center, and what common pitfalls people run into in acquiring alternate media.
Please join us. The Accessibility Office Hours offer the opportunity to ask questions and share best practices regarding web, document, and assistive technology accessibility issues. Audience participation is welcome!
