CTE Program Accessibility Initiatives

The CTE is committed to providing equal access to events and programs. If you ever have any questions about the specifics of a program, don檛 hesitate to email centerforteaching@bc.edu.

Our goal is to make our offerings as accessible as possible from the outset, though we can檛 anticipate the needs of each individual. If you require an accommodation to participate in an event, please either:听

While there is no firm deadline for accommodation requests, earlier notice better allows us to implement a solution that will meet your needs.

Steps CTE staff generally take to make our programs more accessible:听

  • Make accessible materials available at least 48 hours ahead of time whenever possible听
  • Provide multiple modes for communication (e.g. verbal and written) throughout听
  • Provide automatic captioning during slide presentations听
  • Make KN95 masks available
  • Provide alternatives to in-person attendance as appropriate (such as sharing session recordings or notes, allowing for remote attendance, or meeting individually)

For programs that we expect to draw a larger audience 斕齦ike Excellence in Teaching Day or TA/TF Orientation � we also:听

  • Provide recordings of keynote sessions. Recordings of plenary or breakout panels may also be available, pending panelist approval.听
  • Use microphones in all event spaces听
  • If moving between buildings is part of the day, identifying a CTE staff member who will take the accessible route between buildings听

Community members and visitors can reserve a lactation space through the Office of the Vice President for Human Resources. 听
