Date & Time
Monday, Feb 24, 2025 at 11:00 - 13:00
Join us for an engaging and hands-on training session led by Chamber member Kasturi Dasgupta from The Global Village. This interactive workshop will delve into the importance of accessibility, not just as part of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), but as a crucial element of customer experience and product design.
Through real-life examples and thought-provoking videos, you’ll explore how accessibility benefits everyone - not just individuals with disabilities. You’ll learn practical techniques like improving colour contrast ratios, using semantic HTML, enabling keyboard access, and incorporating alt text, audio, and video descriptions. Participants will have the chance to test tools, review documents with screen readers, and gain a deeper understanding of how accessibility impacts real-world interactions.
Key takeaways include:
- Debunking myths about accessibility being only for legal compliance.
- Discovering how easy and impactful accessibility can be for business growth, social media, and SEO.
- Learning how to embed accessibility into your core processes seamlessly.
- Each attendee will receive a comprehensive handbook with additional resources, accessible design insights, and global accessibility requirements
Participants will receive a CPD Certificate after the completion of the training.
Don’t miss this opportunity to make your business more inclusive, innovative, and competitive.
