[Athen] Administrative Rules and guidelines around accessiblesoftware

[Shawn Foster]

Hi Carol!
How's things?
You might check in with the California Community Colleges, Stanford, and the CSUs... I think they have state guidelines. Our guidelines are pretty flimsy (read that, "unenforced"), so I won't recommend them. :-(

Hi!
I am wondering if any of you have established administrative rules regarding using accessible software at your institutions? We are at the a point where we want to pursue establishing guidelines around how faculty select software. 
 
I'm also wondering if you have established any standards regarding the creation of on-line or hybrid classes. We use Moodle and there are no college standards for font, font size, color or a consistent layout. There is also no standard for creating accessible documents (MS Word or PDF files).
 
I am interested in your thoughts about this and would appreciate any examples of such rules. 
 
Thank you,
