‘Accessibility as Standard’ Checklist: C - Virtual Learning Environments (VLE) Introduction from the Disabled Members’ Standing Committee The Disabled Members’ Standing Committee (DMSC) works on behalf of all our members from Further Education to Higher Education, Prisons, Adult and Continuing Education and academic- related, professional services staff and researchers. [...] Inform the lead for Health and Safety and the Joint Negotiation and Consultation Committee (or equivalent) at your institution about this checklist so that they can assist you with completing the review. [...] Where data is missing (because reps are unable to find the required information), inform the lead for Health and Safety, and your branch committee. [...] Please share the results and recommendations of the review each year with UCU including sending your completed checklists to eqadmin@ucu.org.uk. [...] The checklist is divided into the following sections and branches are encouraged to complete, it in full, or to choose an area, for example, if disabled members have raised issues around ‘Information’ and access, then branches should use that checklist to support engagement with employers.
