Website Accessibility

New England Conservatory (NEC) is committed to providing an online environment that is accessible to everyone, including individuals with disabilities. Our goal is to make NEC’s online communications accessible to everyone, including individuals with disabilities.

NEC recognizes that physical, sensory, cognitive, emotional, and psychological abilities exist in a wide, diverse spectrum among those who interact with the conservatory’s website. This diversity is seen as a pillar of strength that enriches the conservatory, and the conservatory seeks ways to include all users in its design thinking, frameworks, and methodologies. The conservatory understands that accessibility and usability are not milestones or tasks to complete on a project; rather, accessibility is a design thinking paradigm that is continually integrated into each step of the development process in order to build a stronger experience for all users.
