Adaptation of teaching materials

Teaching materials and learning platforms are usually difficult to access for people with visual impairments. However, barrier-free access to learning content and accessible examination design are key factors in the successful completion of a course. Our teaching materials department implements the necessary material adaptations in consultation with those involved in a needs-based and timely manner.
