Accessible Purchasing

Purchasing Instructional Materials

Volunteer State Community College is committed to vetting the accessibility of the instructional materials and technology we adopt.

Accessible Purchasing Guidance

Vol State employees should review the Requesting Accessibility Documentation & Creating Alternate Access Plans knowledge base article for step by step guidance on how to request and process accessibility documentation.

Vendor Documentation

As part of the procurement process, vendors are asked to provide:

1. The most recent Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT®) for your product. If you do not currently have an updated VPAT®, you can download the Template to fill out.
2. A completed Accessibility Conformance and Remediation Form (click to download).
3. An Accessibility Statement on your commitment to ensuring product accessibility.
4. *If interactive materials/media are present, include a completed EPUB 3 Accessibility Checklist (click to download).
