Accessibility Awareness Week

The second annual Virginia Tech Accessibility Awareness Week was held March 31 to April 5, 2025. Modeled after Global Accessibility Awareness Day, the goal of the week is to provide learning opportunities and resources that engage the campus community to think, discuss, learn, and take action regarding digital and physical accessibility. The 2025 theme was Accessibility by Design: How the intentional design of systems, spaces, and experiences helps improve accessibility across all areas of campus life.

Accessibility Awareness Week is sponsored by the Campus Accessibility Working Group, Office for Civil Rights Compliance and Prevention Education, Division of Information Technology, and Technology-enhanced Learning and Online Strategies.

The call for event proposals for Accessibility Awareness Week 2026 will open in late fall 2025.
