The Pope Tech accessibility scanner launches in Canvas on August 18 — join the pilot program to try it out.

Dear Faculty,
We are excited to announce the upcoming installation of Pope Tech accessibility scanner into Canvas. Starting Monday, August 18th you’ll be able to:

• Scan your Canvas course for potential accessibility issues
• Reference a built-in accessibility guide to correct accessibility issues
• Track your accessibility progress with your course dashboard and customizable reports
• Convert course content into alternative files such as Braille, MP3, Word and PDF. This feature will also be available to students.

If you’re interested in participating in our pilot to help us gather feedback and plan for the Spring 2026 term, please submit a Canvas Request.

Thank you,
IT Customer Experience
