Ensure your online content is accessible to everyone.

 

Digital accessibility involves designing and developing digital products to avoid barriers for people with disabilities.

 

According to the CDC, 27% of Americans have some form of disability. That means one out of every four people could have difficulty engaging with your latest social media post, email, PDF, or webpage. Join us to learn how to identify potential barriers in digital content and overcome them to reach the broadest possible audience.

 

Attend this interactive workshop and discover:

  • the fundamental principles of accessibility,
  • common mistakes to avoid while creating content,
  • and how to use available tools to ensure your content's accessibility.

 

This TCU Web Management event marks the beginning of a series designed to educate our digital content creators and web editors on the benefits of making their projects accessible to everyone.

10-minute break
10:10-11 a.m.: Real-World Examples/Hands-on Workshop

 

Core Skills 2

What is digital accessibility, who is affected by it, and why is it so important? We will explore baseline principles such as:

  • Contrast/color blindness
  • Headings
  • Lists
  • Testing

 

Real World Examples

Learn how to put this new knowledge to work with some hands-on examples from the TCU network of websites (and bring your own!). We will show how to make use of several of our favorite testing tools and use them to improve our digital content. If possible, bring your laptop and a page or two of your work to review. Digital accessibility is about process, not perfection, so let's get started on the process today.
