Content Community:Making your content more accessible BeginnersIntermediateNew
Accessible content is easy to find, understand and interact with, regardless of the user's ability or the device they are using.
One common misconception is that web accessibility only helps people who have a permanent disability. Though 1 in 5 of us in the UK have a disability, all of us experience temporary and situational disabilities during our lifetime. This session builds on existing accessibility guidance from the content community.
This content community event will also cover:
- Updates about new WCAG 2.2 accessibility standards
- Common content accessibility issues in Drupal, SharePoint and Shorthand, and how to fix them
- Tools and tips for creating accessible web pages, videos, documents, social media posts and more
The session is for everyone interested in creating content.
A recording of this event will be available on the Content Community SharePoint site for anyone who cannot attend.
