UCLA continues to strengthen the digital foundation that supports teaching, research, and operations across campus. Digital & Technology Solutions (DTS), in close partnership with campus functional and IT leaders, is advancing efforts to modernize infrastructure, improve cybersecurity and accessibility, and support a more connected One IT environment.

HHS has issued an Interim Final Rule extending the Section 504 web and mobile accessibility compliance deadline by one year, to May 11, 2027 for institutions with 15 or more employees. The Steering Committee is working with Compliance and Campus Counsel to assess the implications for the campus program, including whether this affects our obligations under other relevant laws and whether UC's IT Accessibility Policy (IMT-1300) will be revised. We will share updates as more information becomes available.
 

We write to share an important update on UCLA’s digital accessibility compliance deadline. The updated UC Policy IMT-1300 requires complying with Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA by April 24, 2026, and with it, a requirement that all new digital content (websites, social media posts, documents, applications, course materials and technology purchases) meet the WCAG 2.1 AA standard.

There is currently an outage with Bruin Learn (Canvas). While Canvas has restored initial functionality to the platform, in alignment with UC guidance, UCLA is performing security assurance, configuration, and integrity checks before re-enabling access. 

Bruin Learn (Canvas) access has been restored. Instructure, the parent company of Canvas, has confirmed that its global cybersecurity incident has been contained and remediated. In coordination with the UC Office of the President, we have determined, based on the latest available information, that Instructure’s system is ready for campus use.
