RE: Testing current accessibility of an entire University

This is a very timely thread. I'm waiting to hear on a contract that would
involve making a provincial government's website accessible within four
months.

I'm thinking the process should be something like:
- do a sample audit, hopefully there are templates involves, but also look
at the content, to discover where the problems are
- revise the internal Internet policies to reflect current web accessibility
standards
- develop a plan to implement new policy, perhaps prioritize the changes and
start with the top ten percent more commonly visited pages and then work
down from there
- and do informal accessibility training along the way to bring everyone
onboard

Anything I missed? Any other suggestions?

Didn't WAI have something on how to write an Implementation plan? Couldn't
find it last night.


Thanks,
Glenda
