Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) – Compliance for Web Sites by Jodi Bowers, Vice-President and Managing Partner, Encore Web Works Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) – Compliance for Web Sites Many organizations think ADA compliance pertains only to physical, tangible items such as wheelchair ramps or bathroom handrails. However, there are a number of guidelines and legal ramifications regarding web sites and ADA compliance. ADA compliance is about fairness - providing the same accessibility to goods or services found in brick-and-mortar businesses to the web. Jodi will help you understand what this means for your business and guide you through the basics of Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. The web landscape has changed – make sure your business can maneuver the terrain. The new laws will affect everyone with a web presence, not just those who are selling consumer direct online. Don’t miss this opportunity to hear about the new changes and get your questions answered. Non-compliance can be costly and ignorance on the topic is not an excuse or a remedy in a lawsuit. In 2001, Jodi formed Encore Web Works with her husband, Steve. Encore offers custom web solutions including web design, custom application development, and web hosting services. At Encore, Jodi combines her creativity and "mad" detail skills to oversee project management, graphic design, and client relations. Dynamic Connections Chapter encourages members to learn, celebrate and support each other, both personally and professionally.
