Web Accessibility Workshop

Who can use your websites? Are they accessible to as many people as possible?

Web accessibility is the process of making it easy for people with disabilities to use your sites. Come to this workshop to learn more about designing with accessibility in mind—and building a better web experience for everyone.

This two-hour workshop will focus on general design principles, with some hands-on exercises. It is helpful to have some knowledge of HTML and CSS. It will be an intimate class and is limited to 10-12 students. You should plan to bring a laptop, a water bottle, a snack and some headphones to work along with the class.
