Directions for UPloading Syllabus
Accessibility
Auburn University has adopted an accessibility policy that requires your syllabus be accessible to users with visual or physical limitations. The system will only upload word documents. Before uploading your word document, you should check if it meets accessibility standards. Refer to the below instructions for using the Accessibility Checker depending on your operating system.
- Windows
Click on the File tab. Choose the Info section and look for the Inspect Document icon. You will click the icon and choose Check Accessibility. This will identify any issues with your document that you will n eed to correct. Once corrected, you can upload the syllabus.
- Mac
Accessibility Checker on the Mac is only available in Office 2016 and is located under the Review tab. If you use a Mac but do not have Office 2016, please email ets@auburn.edu to request an appointment to update your software.
For assistance with accessibility issues, please email ets@auburn.edu to send your request.
