This position will have oversight of the Program Manager for the unit’s Access Text & Technology (ATT) Program while also holding a leadership, outreach and administrative role in the broader office operations. The ATT program serves all three UW campuses (Bothell, Tacoma and Seattle) in the conversion and creation of accessible instructional materials and media for courses. We partner with campus offices such as Access Technology Services, DO-IT, UW Captioning, Center for Teaching and Learning, and many more as we strive for accessible and inclusive classrooms for students.

There has been, and continues to be, some amazing work happening on campus with a focus on accessibility. It is an energizing time to work on this campus and partner with great colleagues as we form our new ideal state of operating. With a new ADA Coordinator search underway, a new charge for a comprehensive 3-5 year plan for accessibility across campus, and administrative commitment to look at how to move the dial on access and inclusion for people with disabilities, we are collectively engaged to get some great work done.
