Pursuant to the Department of Justice’s final rule updating its regulations for Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act, UF’s web content and mobile apps must meet Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA by April 24, 2026.

UF’s Electronic Information Technology and Communications Accessibility (EITCA) Policy has be updated to reflect this ruling. All members of the UF community that produce or purchase materials for the web, including instructional materials, and mobile apps on behalf of UF must be familiar with this policy.

Resources to ensure compliance are available on the UF Accessibility website.  Over the coming weeks, the UF Accessibility website will be updated regularly to reflect new resources and training opportunities.
