Measures to support accessibility
Cabrillo College strives to create an environment where all students, regardless of their abilities, have equal access to learning opportunities.
Cabrillo College takes the following measures to ensure accessibility of the college:
Include accessibility throughout our internal policies.
Integrate accessibility into our procurement practices.
Provide continual accessibility training for our staff.
Assign clear accessibility goals and responsibilities.
Employ formal accessibility quality assurance methods.
Resources
Students: The Accessibility Support Center (ASC) supports students with disabilities on campus and is available for students to request support services. You can contact them at asc@cabrilllo.edu or (831) 479-6370.
Faculty and Staff: The TLC provides guidance with ensuring materials are accessible. Contact them at tlc@cabrillo.edu or go to their page to make an appointment.
You can report disability-related discrimination or harassment.
The California Community Colleges Accessibility Center has AB 2821 resources for staff and faculty on how best to support students with disabilities.
Conformance status
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. Cabrillo College is partially conformant with WCAG 2.2 level AA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content do not fully conform to the accessibility standard. We are working toward full compliance.
Additional accessibility considerations
Although our goal is WCAG 2.1 Level AA conformance, we have also applied some Level AAA Success Criteria: Images of text are only used for decorative purposes. Color contrast ratio for text is at least 3:1 ratio.
