Digital accessibility doesn't have to be an exercise in memorizing buttons, acronyms, and innumerable rules. A few basic skills and practices can help you make many kinds of digital content more accessible.
Digital Accessibility Basics introduces practical accessibility skills that apply across documents, websites, course content, presentations, social media, and other digital content. We'll look at common accessibility issues, demonstrate ways to address them, and explore tools that can help you check your work.
These skills are simple to learn and use — and you may already use many of them without realizing how they contribute to accessibility.
