                            Welcome to the Lunch and Learn series!

Every other Tuesday throughout the academic year, Lunch and Learns will be held over Zoom from Noon - 12:30 p.m. to provide "bite-sized" tips on how to make your class accessible. The first half of each session will include a brief presentation or tutorial on one accessibility best practice, and the second half will be discussion-based, leaving space for people to share their own tips and tricks with the group as well as ask questions.
