Accessibility Planning for 2025

This free webinar will take place Wednesday 23 October 2024 at 1pm BST.

Group of people in office with colourful board of post-it-notes

  • What are your goals for your accessibility programme in 2025?
  • What are your priorities for your budgets?
  • How do you build your plans and collaborate with colleagues?

AbilityNet consultants Robin Christopherson and Jess Cahill will show how the Digital Accessibility Maturity Model can be used to take stock of your current position and identify priorities for action.

This session is aimed at anyone with responsibility for delivering accessibility in their work, to help you think about what you want to achieve in 2025. This will include:

  • where are you now?
  • where do you want to get to?
  • what is your wishlist for 2025?

Robin and Jess work on accessibility strategy with a range of clients and can offer top tips to help how to prioritise projects, build links with internal stakeholders, and where to find helpful resources.
