Welcome to the Accessibility Resources Space! We're glad you're here. This space is designed to support faculty and staff in creating more inclusive and accessible material and environments. Here you'll find a wide range of resources, tools, and guidance to help you make your content more usable for all. Whether you're just beginning your accessibility journey or looking to deepen your practice, this space is here to empower you with practical strategies and support.
There are EMS Accessibility Champions identified in each unit. To find out what they do, please see The Role of the Accessibility Champion document.
When creating a PDF from a Word document or PowerPoint file, you should always Save As and choose PDF as the type, rather than Printing to PDF. Printing to PDF removes all accessibility features, whereas Saving As a PDF will retain all of the tagging, heading structure, and other elements needed for an accessible PDF!
The resources in this section are meant to help you as you use the software and programs that are part of your everyday work at Penn State.
If you have a specific question, want some customized training, or want to have a consultation, fill out the Accessibility Training/Consultation Request form!
