Description

It’s too easy to create inaccessible content—i.e., online content that people with disabilities cannot access. At its worst, inaccessible content can get a company sued. But the good news? Creating an accessible website is easier than you think, and it’s a smart business decision. But mostly, it’s the right thing to do. In this session we'll dive into creating accessible websites. We'll explore the principles and practices that produce accessible online experiences, including creating content and code for all audiences. Full of examples and given by a Certified Professional in Accessibility Core Competency (CPACC), this session will help make your website accessible once and for all. Built for anyone who manages websites or web content (not just web developers), you’ll learn how to create content and code to keep you compliant with current law and serve the nearly 60 million Americans living with a disability.
