We offer bespoke accessibility training for any organisation. Delivered in-house or remotely, we can up-skill developers, designers, content writers, general staff members and auditors.
Why does my team need web accessibility training
When dealing with complex web projects, or large-scale web estates maintaining consistency remains key. Training ensures everybody knows what to deliver, but most importantly, how it gets delivered.
Accessibility is regulated for public sector organisations by Public Bodies Websites and Mobile Apps Accessibility Regulations (2018). There’s also the threat of the Equality Act 2010 adding pressure to any other organisation.
There has never been a time like the present to ensure staff within your teams understand the principle of accessibility. And how to implement the principles.

Accessibility awareness
Everyone in an organisation needs a greater understanding of accessibility. Even if they do not work directly with web systems. From junior level administrators to high-level executives, everyone needs to know why accessibility is important.
Approaching accessibility with a top down approach is important. Inspiring others to be advocates is an essential part of being an organisation that is inclusive.

We can tailor a package to suit you:
