Blue Ridge Community College, one of 58 public institutions within the North Carolina Community College System, has selected the YuJa Panorama LMS Accessibility Platform to help advance its accessibility goals and support a more inclusive learning environment for all students.
“YuJa works with a number of institutions in the North Carolina Community College System, and we’re excited for Blue Ridge Community College to experience everything YuJa Panorama has to offer.”
The institution, which has been serving the educational and workforce training needs of the Blue Ridge Mountains region since 1969, was seeking a comprehensive accessibility solution that would integrate seamlessly with its Moodle Learning Management System. The college had been using another accessibility tool, but experienced limitations when working on an internal project that required more advanced capabilities. Following an evaluation, institutional leaders found that YuJa Panorama could accomplish the specific tasks they needed, including with a wide variety of alternative formats, and that it is user-friendly for administrators, instructors, and students.
YuJa Panorama is an out-of-the-box accessibility suite that integrates with the LMS to provide automated accessibility scanning and analysis of course content against established accessibility standards, along with detailed reporting and analytics to help instructors and administrators track accessibility improvements over time. YuJa Panorama also provides alternative formats, powerful remediation engines that detect, prioritize, and help instructors correct inaccessible content in documents, in-line remediation capabilities, and more.
To help ensure students can easily navigate the college’s digital resources, Blue Ridge also adopted YuJa’s Website Accessibility Widget, a tool that enables students to customize their web browsing experience with tools like text-to-speech, magnification, and color contrast adjustments.
“YuJa works with a number of institutions in the North Carolina Community College System, and we’re excited for Blue Ridge Community College to experience everything YuJa Panorama has to offer,” said Nathan Arora, Chief Executive Officer at YuJa, Inc. “heir commitment to creating an accessible digital learning environment is clear, and YuJa Panorama will support instructors in embedding accessibility into course design from the start.”
