How to build strong accessibility capability across your organisation

Over 700 organisations have completed our ISO 30071-1 Digital Accessibility Maturity Scorecard. The results show us time and again that organisations often have high motivation but low capability to deliver Digital Accessibility.

In this session, Pete Bricknell and Jonathan Hassell explore how to equip your organisation with the necessary skills and strategies to achieve digital accessibility success, no matter your organisation’s size, industry, or where you do business.

The session covers:

  • How to gain the key skills you need to be personally confident in digital accessibility
  • How to assess the accessibility skills you need your team members to have, if you’re leading the creation of a website or app
  • How to build and scale accessibility skills across your organisation

We explore the pros and cons of various training methods and options—both from us and other sources—and how technical training in areas like web development, design and QA can really boost your team’s results.

We also share tips on how to navigate common roadblocks like “training budget freezes” so you can secure budget to get the skills your team needs to succeed.
