Creating Accessible Presentations

When you create a presentation, you want everyone to understand your message. However, many presentations unintentionally include barriers that make that goal difficult for some. In this webinar, participants learned techniques for making slides more accessible using a number of popular presentation tools.

Resources by Program Areas

The OSEP website provides multiple resources to support stakeholders as they engage in different program areas, evaluations, improving accessibility, and undergo the OSEP Peer Review process. To learn more, Select a "Program Area" in the navigation on the left side of the page to access the OSEP Program Area pages, which include each program area's performance measures.

Notable Resources from the Field

  • IDEA State Advisory Panels (SAP) and State Interagency Coordinating Councils (SICC)

    This page addresses the needs of students with disabilities in K-12 special education programs, early intervention programs, and preschool. The page is intended to address the information and communication needs of SAP members and State Education Agency (SEA) staff, SICC members and Lead Agency (LA) staff, individuals interested in learning about the functions of the SAPs and SICCs.

  • OSEP Launches New Engage OSEP Site

    The Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) at the U.S. Department of Education has instituted a new strategy to enhance collaboration opportunities with grantees and other stakeholders. This Engage OSEP site will enable OSEP to virtually bring together a variety of stakeholders to share information and to work together to improve results for infants, toddlers, children, and youth with disabilities. This site has been designed to give OSEP staff, grantees, and stakeholders a place to work together to solve complicated issues, facilitate informal knowledge sharing, exchange thoughts and ideas, and share resources, while also providing a place for collaborative creation of new knowledge.
