Description

Did you know that you could have a web page or website be accessible according to WCAG, but still be completely unusable for assistive technology users? In this presentation, Jonee Meiser, CPWA, and Alyssa Cheeseman, CPACC, discuss the downsides and the cons of WCAG, including pointing out the adversarial guidelines specified in the W3C’s recommendation.

After the session is over, we’ll continue the conversation on our #accessibility Slack channel. All HighEdWeb members are welcome to join the HighEdWeb Slack Workspace.
