DCAAP Project Timeline
The proposed project timeline extends from Fall 2024 through Fall 2026. This timeframe will provide the necessary foundation to establish the infrastructure required for George Mason to procure, develop, and sustain accessible digital content. However, this effort will be ongoing and is expected to continue well beyond this initial timeline.
During the Summer/Fall 2024 semesters, ATI staff will develop and pilot a plan to bring digital content hosted on public-facing websites and in courses into compliance with the updated ADA Title II standards. The ATI Office will model the plan, auditing its own digital resources. The second part of this process will involve working closely with Disability Services, the Office of Access, Compliance, and Community, and the University Libraries.
Starting Spring 2025, ATI staff will start actively engaging with units to audit, assess, and remediate their public-facing websites and the content hosted on those websites (e.g., images, audio/video, documents, etc.).
Starting Fall 2025, ATI staff will start actively engaging with faculty and academic units to audit, assess, and remediate the content hosted within the LMS (i.e., text content, supplemental applications) and in Mason courses (i.e., audio/video, documents).
