The University of Alaska will recognize National Compliance Week from November 2 through 6 with short activities and practical resources for employees across the system. 

The week's featured activities are:

  • Monday, November 2: Digital Accessibility at UA - Attend a panel discussion about resources available for digital accessibility
  • Tuesday, November 3: Compliance Scavenger Hunt

Compliance Week is also a useful time to revisit the resources that support your regular work. If you are unsure whether a law, policy, procedure, contract, or approval applies, pause and ask your supervisor or the appropriate university office before acting.
