Additionally, thousands of resources are available online to support you in learning to design effective and accessible online learning modules. You can begin with resources like:

* [20 Tips for Teaching an Accessible Online Course ](https://www.washington.edu/doit/20-tips-teaching-accessible-online-course)
* [Making Your E-Learning Courses Accessible for Those with Disabilities](https://youtu.be/sFq94HAcZFk)

## ITC Responsibilities & Timelines

* ITC will provide content authors with training to understand best practices in developing both effective and accessible online trainings.&#x20;
* ITC will work with content authors to design a timeframe that will allow you to develop a storyboard and the content needed for your online training in an efficient and time sensitive manner that works everyone.&#x20;
* ITC will provide ongoing assistance to content authors during the content development process, including audio checks, software lessons, video recommendations, etc. Because of this inherent back-and-forth contact, it is recommended that the online training development process begin 8 weeks before the training needs to be live publicly, and that there be a submission of draft materials at 4 weeks.&#x20;
* Once content is fully developed and provided to the ITC, the ITC requests at least 2 weeks to review materials and make necessary changes before publishing online.
