A well-written evaluation report still falls short if people can’t actually access it. For evaluators working with NSF ATE projects, accessibility means more than meeting federal standards under ADA Title II, which applies to public institutions and the digital content they produce. It means creating reports that everyone can access and understand in order to make sound evaluation decisions.

This webinar walks through what evaluators need to know to prepare accessible reports. Presenters will cover document structure, plain language and formatting practices, and other considerations for anyone communicating evaluation findings. You’ll leave with practical strategies you can put to use in your next report, whether you’re just starting to think about accessibility or want to sharpen practices you already have in place.

Accessibility isn’t an extra step. It’s part of what quality evaluation work looks like. Join to make sure your reports reach everyone they’re meant to reach.
