In an institution as large as Imperial College London, working to devolved web model, they are faced with a number of challenges such as:

  • bringing over 100 micro sites up-to the same standard of accessibility as their main web presence,
  • ensuring all content creators and editors are following the best practice guidelines,
  • procuring accessible products from external suppliers.

In this podcast episode, we chat to Liz Scholfield, Peter Gillings and Okan Kibaroglu from Imperial about the College's digital accessibility project. They tell us why, at Imperial College London, accessibility is more than a checkbox exercise and how they are doing it. We cover topics including:

  • the processes in place to communicate the College's accessibility strategy,
  • what resources and training are available to staff and academics,
  • the road map to meet September's regulatory deadline, as well as ensuring accessibility and inclusivity is part of the College’s ethos and culture.
