Campus Disability Access Guide

Kapi'olani Community College is firmly committed to meeting the needs of persons with disabilities in all of its educational programs and services. The vision is to create a college environment where all persons have an equal opportunity to fully participate in all aspects of activities on campus.

In support of this commitment, a KCC Campus Disability Access to Technology (CDAT) Plan was created containing technology guidelines, monitoring procedures, and implementation activities to ensure compliance.

Web Accessibility Guidelines

The University of Hawaii, in accord with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA), Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and the Telecommunications Act of 1996 is committed to ensuring that academic computing and information resources are accessible to disabled students, faculty and staff. The University of Hawai'i has adopted Web Access guidelines developed by the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI), of the World Wide Web Consortium. These guidelines can be found in the: UH Systemwide Guidelines for Web Site Accessibility.

KCC Web

The official website of Kapi'olani Community College (The KCC Web) is working towards full compliance with the UH Systemwide Guidelines for Web Site Accessibility. Send any comments or concerns to the Web Coordinator at kccweb@hawaii.edu.

KCC Web contains Transportation Information. In the future, we hope to provide a Disability Access Campus Map.
