Web Accessibility 101: Small Things That Make a Big Difference
Details
Making your website more accessible doesn’t have to mean a complete overhaul. In this introductory webinar presented by Maria Maldonado, Accessibility Specialist at Equalize Digital, you’ll learn how small, intentional changes can dramatically improve usability for people with disabilities—and create a better experience for all users.
Maria will break down the fundamentals of web accessibility in clear, non-technical terms and highlight simple fixes you can start implementing right away. Whether you’re new to accessibility or looking for easy wins, this session will help you take meaningful first steps toward a more inclusive website.
What you’ll learn:
- Common accessibility barriers and how to avoid them.
- Small, high-impact improvements you can make quickly.
