About this Website

Everett Community College (EvCC) has adopted standards and requirements that are based on Priority 1 of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines identified by the World Wide Web Consortium (www.w3c.org/TR/WCAG10/), state and federal standards set by the U.S. Congress under the Americans with Disabilities Act (www.usdoj.gov/crt/ada) and enactment of Section 508 (www.section508.gov), Usability.gov, and the Washington SBCTC-IT guidelines. To ensure equal access to electronic information, these standards have been set forth and applied to public and internal EvCC sites via the World Wide Web, Web Applications, and Kiosks. We strive to be 100% compliant to these requirements, however times may occur in which this does not occur.
