Accessible Media
Accessibility is essential for developers and organizations that want to create high-quality websites and web tools, and not exclude people from using their products and services. If you’re in charge of your website, you have a lot of things to cover between keeping it up to date, entering and managing content, and making sure it's all accessible.

As part of an inclusive content strategy, how accessible is your media?

We'll do a deep dive into making your media more accessible. We'll cover definitions, standards, guidelines, as well as images, videos, captions, media players, and more.
