Last week at the Accessing Higher Ground conference in Boulder, I picked up a flyer from WebAim (www.webaim.org) that describes a five-step web remediation process: "the fast track to accessibilty." Here it is in outline:

1. Evaluate your current site.
2. Fix the easiest issues first.
3. Fix your templates.
4. Fix all HTML-related issues.
5. Fix all non-HTML issues.

The flyer goes into more detail.

Hi all,

Our college's teaching and technology just had a meeting
today with its major focus and agenda being web site
accessibility.  The major question came up for me to ask
the experts from this listserv as follows:

Given that each of our Maricopa community colleges have
hundreds, if not thousands, of web pages (including
courses on the web.    This all comes after several
years of development and .....recently the staff and
faculty are now realizing the responsibility to have the
web sites/pages be ADA/508 compliant.

The question is this:   Iin what order of the web
sites/pages do we need to ensure are accessible.  We
know that we definitely need to have the home page be
508 compliant along with its links.

Please comment and advise.  Thank you in advance for
taking the time to submit your replies to the above
question.
