(PRWEB) September 3, 2003 -- TecAccess, a worldwide leader in Information Technology Accessibility and Section 508 Compliance Solutions, provided accessibility remediation for a General Service Administration (GSA) training course. Since the GSA is part of the United States federal government, all of its products and services must be Section 508 compliant.

Section 508 is the amendment to the Workforce Rehabilitation Act of 1973, which was signed into law by President Clinton in 1998. It requires all federal departments, agencies, contractors, and federally funded companies to make their electronic and information technology accessible to people with disabilities. The law covers their development, maintenance, procurement, and use of these technologies.

The General Services Administration (GSA) purchases products and services that the U.S. federal government needs. These essentials include buildings, technology, and furniture, among others. The GSA also sells surplus real estate and vehicles to the public. Moreover, it creates and implements business management practices for the entire government. Regarding technology, the GSA is the managing partner for five of the White Houses twenty-four e-government initiatives. For further information about the GSA, visit www.gsa.gov.
