The Big Ten Academic Alliance (BTAA)’s Library Accessibility Group is excited 
to offer a free training course “Cultivating Belonging: Library Accessibility 
Essentials.”

This course provides participants a foundation for discussing accessibility at 
their institutions and
includes topics such as disability services, implicit bias, disability 
etiquette, and how to make digital content on and off the web more accessible. 
A certificate of completion will be issued to participants who successfully 
finish all modules of the course.

The course is self-paced, enabling participants to move through the content at 
their own pace. The average time to completion is five hours. Create an account
