Description:
The Office of Disability Resources is looking for faculty members to join our "Faculty Accessibility Ambassador Project”. We are now recruiting 24 faculty members from across UR colleges and departments who are interested in receiving training to become our first cohort of “Accessibility Ambassadors”. We will provide year-long support and training specifically related to disability issues, facilitating accommodations, creating accessible materials, and implementing Universal Design for Learning strategies in their classrooms. This exciting opportunity for faculty training is being made possible by funding from the NY State Education Department Enhancing Supports and Services for Students with Disabilities Grant for Postsecondary Success (SWDPS).
Please make sure you have read the project description thoroughly and are committed to participating in the Fall and Spring portions of this training.
