Why you should attend
For small businesses and charities, lack of staff time, budget and knowledge can make it hard to know where to start with accessibility.
This session, aimed at organisations of around 20 staff or fewer, covers the basic principles of digital accessibility, and shows how you can make the most impact with limited resources.
It looks at things to consider when making procurement decisions and choosing products, creating accessible content on your website, social media posts and documents, and highlights how to test with real users, and how to manage and fund accessibility, as well as free tools and resources.
Who will benefit from this training?
Anyone in a small organisation with responsibility for websites, social media, documents or internal policy such as:
- Communications officers
- Website managers
- Content editors
- Digital officers
- General managers and chief executives
Level of training: Suitable for all levels of knowledge
