In celebration of National AccessAbility Week, eCampusOntario has released a new GPT to help you learn key strategies from Accessible WIL: A Roadmap for Accessible Work-Integrated Learning, a report from Business + Higher Education Roundtable in partnership with eCampusOntario that outlines how institutions can provide more equitable and beneficial work-integrated learning experiences for students with disabilities.
Want to learn more about accessibility of your work-integrated learning projects?
Ask the GPT any question you have, and it will share strategies and actions related to designing websites, mobile applications, electronic documents, and assistive technologies that ensure people with disabilities can acquire information, interact, and use services in an equally effective and enjoyable manner.
Why is it important for your work-integrated learning programs to be accessible?
Accessible Work-Integrated Learning (WIL) programs are crucial because they ensure that students with disabilities (SwDs) can fully participate and benefit from employment opportunities. WIL programs can support SwDs in their educational and professional development while fostering a more equitable and diverse workforce.
What does an accessible workforce mean for your business?
An accessible workforce helps your business by bridging the employment gap, ensuring that your business benefits from a wider range of talent. By hiring learners with disabilities, you can help learners access meaningful careers, address labor shortages, and bring diverse perspectives to your team.
