Braille signs are being produced in-house using our university's own resources
Our university has implemented a new approach in the
production of Braille signs, which are used to facilitate campus life for
individuals with visual impairments. Previously sourced externally at high
costs, these signs are now being produced in-house using a specialized printer
recently acquired by the university.
Led by
the Quality Coordination Office and coordinated by staff member Mr. Şeref
AKYOL, the initiative has significantly reduced costs while streamlining the
production process to make it faster and more efficient. As a result, newly
required signs can now be produced in a short time, and the renewal and
updating of existing signage can be carried out more easily.
Mr. Şeref AKYOL, a staff member of the Quality Coordination Office,
shared the following remarks regarding the initiative:
"We are continuing our efforts without interruption to create an
accessible university environment. The ability to produce Braille signs
in-house has been a significant achievement in terms of both cost and
efficiency. Expanding this practice, particularly in units applying for
accreditation, will strongly contribute to meeting accessibility standards as
well as to quality assurance processes."
This step, which contributes to our university’s efforts in
accessibility and quality, also serves as a strong example of the effective and
efficient use of institutional resources. Moving forward, the widespread
implementation of Braille signage across the campus is considered a significant
and sustainable achievement in terms of accreditation, accessibility, and
quality.
