Join our hands-on working session to use YuJa Panorama to scan your course for accessibility issues and quickly implement fixes directly in Canvas to support all learners. We’ll walk through interpreting the accessibility report and practice remediation techniques for heading structure, alternative text, contrast, descriptive link text, table headers, STEM content, and more. Plan on using a course you’re actively teaching (or preparing) so you leave with real progress and plan to keep your content accessible going forward.  By participating in this session, you will be able to:  Review the accessibility report to find potential accessibility issues and prioritize items that most impact learner access.   Apply accessibility remediations to course content.  Discuss strategies for implementing a check‑and‑fix process to increase course accessibility.   To register for this event, use the Spring 2026 CFE-Facilitated Session Registration Form.  Advance registration is required.
