Public and Private Universities
Comprehensive digital accessibility for the university ecosystem: virtual campus, institutional website, and teaching materials.
Universities manage complex digital ecosystems: virtual campuses, enrollment platforms, digital libraries, teaching materials in multiple formats, and employment portals. Accessibility is not only a legal obligation (RD 1112/2018 for public, EAA for private) but a commitment to equal opportunities for all students, including those with disabilities.
Why is accessibility essential in universities?
Universities are environments where equal opportunities is a fundamental principle. However, virtual campuses, enrollment platforms, and digital teaching materials often present significant barriers for students with visual, auditory, motor, or cognitive disabilities.
Public universities are directly required by RD 1112/2018 to comply with UNE 301 549 across all their portals and applications. Private universities must comply with the European Accessibility Act (EAA) since June 2025 for their digital services.
Beyond regulatory compliance, an accessible university improves the experience for all students, reduces individual adaptation requests, and strengthens its positioning as an institution committed to inclusion and social innovation.
