NCC’s Commitment to Inclusive Education

At Nassau Community College (NCC), we are committed to creating an inclusive and equitable learning environment for all students, faculty, and staff. Accessibility is a core value of our institution and an essential component of digital learning.

Our goal is to ensure that every member of the NCC community can fully participate in academic programs, services, and activities—regardless of ability. We strive to meet and exceed accessibility standards in all digital content, online courses, and educational technologies.

Our Commitment

  • Compliance with Standards: NCC adheres to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, and Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1).
  • Accessible Digital Learning: All online courses and resources are designed to be usable by individuals with diverse abilities, including those who rely on assistive technologies.
  • Continuous Improvement: We regularly review and update our practices to align with evolving accessibility standards and best practices.

What We Do

  • Provide training and resources for faculty to create accessible course materials.
  • Offer consultation and support for implementing accessibility features in Brightspace LMS.
  • Ensure captioning and transcripts for video and audio content.
  • Conduct accessibility audits for online courses and digital resources.
