Professional Development Opportunity - Accessibility: Designing and Teaching Courses for All Learners

Accessibility: Designing and Teaching Courses for All Learners (#AccessMOOC) is an on-demand professional development MOOC co-developed by Buffalo State and Empire State College. The course will provide participants with an understanding of accessibility as a civil rights issue and help them develop the knowledge and skills needed to design learning experiences that promote inclusive learning environments.
