[blindLaw] CLEs that have prompts on the screen to document that the participant took the course

[Nightingale, Noel]

Last week, I had a similar thing happen with an ABA CLE.  Apparently, there were things that came up on the screen during the webinar, but I had dialed into the webinar and was accessing the content using a telephone so I did not know.  Afterward, I was told I could not get CLE because I had not responded to the prompts.  However, when I contacted the ABA, they fixed the issue.

This may be a new accessibility issue that we should all start paying attention to.

Subject: [blindLaw] accessibility of DC's mandatory ethics course

All,

I just registered for DC's mandatory ethics course for new admittees.
I would love to speak with someone with no usable vision who has taken the course recently and can speak to its accessibility.  I learned, only after registering, that I am to write down five random codes that display on the screen during the course.  How have people handled this?  And is hte ocurse itself accessible?  I plan to reach out to the DC bar, but my experience has been that people are slow to respond given the pandemic, and I only have 14 days to complete the course before incurring outrageous additional boondoggle fees.  any assistance is gratefully appreciatted.

Best,
Laura
