I'm super-excited to announce two positions, each with an emphasis on accessible technology, are currently open at UNR. Both are new positions created to enhance our progress in the area of accessibility.

The Senior Web Developer is responsible for ensuring the University's web content meets accessibility standards per the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The incumbent works in conjunction with other University departments to develop and implement training for faculty and staff responsible for creating and maintaining any portion of the University's web presence.
