WAC Workshops

The WAC is committed to helping OSU implement the OSU Minimum Web Accessibility Standards in its program, department, college, course, and professional web sites and web applications.

Join us for informational and hands-on workshops designed to help you explore, develop, and implement strategies for accessible web design and development.

Workshops are free to OSU faculty, staff, and students. Priority is given to faculty, staff, and graduate students.

Non-OSU affiliates may register for workshops at minimal cost and will be accommodated after OSU affiliates:

• Not-for-profit schools and organizations: $30 per workshop
• For-profit businesses: $70 per workshop

Note about workshop lab space: Our workshops are given in OSU computer labs (see the registration form for details). To have internet access on the lab workstations, OSU affiliates must use their OSU username and password. Please have that information when attending the workshops. If you are not affiliated with OSU, please write to us at wac@osu.edu and we will attempt to secure a temporary account for you.

Workshop Locations

We offer a number of our workshops jointly with the College of Education and Human Ecology. They have generously allowed us to use the lab in 009 Ramseyer for workshops. Ramseyer is located at 29 West Woodruff Ave., on the southeast corner of Woodruff and High Street.

• To get to RA 009, go to the rear (wheelchair accessible) entrance of Ramseyer, which can be reached from the driveway on Woodruff, between College and High, or from College, via the walkway on the North side of Arps garage. 009 is in the basement of Ramseyer Hall. Take the ramp into the basement. Take your first right. The first room on the left is 009.

  Here is a picture of the entrance to Ramseyer, coming from the walkway next to Arps garage. The ramp is visible next to the large air conditioning unit.

  

We also sometimes hold workshops either in the Digital Union or the Digital Union Computer Lab (SEL 390). Both are located on the third floor of the Science and Engineering Library. The library is located between 17th and 18th Ave next to Denney and Brown Hall. When you enter the building, turn right just past the gates and make another immediate right into the hallway/elevator area.

• The Digital Union is on the third floor directly across from the elevators. If there is no one at the front desk, turn right as you enter and go around the corner to the conference areas.
• To get to SEL 390, turn left as you exit the elevators, then another left just before you reach the stacks. SEL 390 is on the left-side of the room closest to the windows/study areas. Look for the standing sign.

Off-Campus Visitor Parking Information

The links in the workshop locations, above, will show you where the buildings are. The Tuttle garage is probably your best bet for visitor parking. If the workshop is in Ramseyer, you might also try the Union garage—it's a nice walk through the Wexner and Mershon arts centers to Ramseyer.
