Accessibility in Aggieland Webinar series!

FEBRUARY TOPIC:
Promoting Accessibility of Online Meetings and Presentations

Webinar Description:
The COVID pandemic has promoted entirely new ways to communicate and collaborate with colleagues, partners and customers using tools like Zoom, Google Meet and many others. But with these new ways to share and engage comes the continued responsibility to ensure equitable access for all participants. In this session, Justin Romack with Texas A&M University’s Department of Disability Resources will discuss several practical ways for facilitating accessibility when planning, promoting and hosting online meetings, events and presentations.

Presenter:
Justin Romack is a Program Coordinator for Assistive Technology Services in the Department of Disability Resources at Texas A&M University. In this role, he works with students, faculty and staff to achieve equitable access to the Aggie experience for disabled students and works to educate the campus community on its shared responsibility for accessibility and inclusion. Justin enjoys unraveling the complexities of technical accessibility requirements to equip and empower leaders, communicators and creatives to make decisions and develop resources which provide access to all information, opportunities and experiences.

When:
Wednesday, February 16th at 1:30pm via Zoom!

The PATHS Program application is now open and available for applicants to apply for the 2022-2024 cohort!!

[please share!]

The Postsecondary Access and Training in Human Services (PATHS) Certificate Program prepares individuals for jobs as Direct Support Professionals, ParaProfessionals, and Child Care Professionals. Upon completing the two-year program at the Center on Disability and Development, participants earn an industry recognized certificate that combines classroom instruction with hands-on career building experiences.

Students who have career aspirations to support people with disabilities, older community citizens, work with school districts or with children in child care settings are strongly encouraged to apply to the PATHS program.

Successful candidates will complete their first year of required coursework. During the second year, our goal is to place PATHS students in a supervised practicum in the community. Students will be on-site learning hands-on skills to prepare them for their career. PATHS instructors provide a broad and unique base of training based on their professional experience.

The deadline for all application materials to be submitted is Monday, February 28, 2022.
