About this event
Shelter WA and People With disability WA would like to offer you the opportunity to join us in an online workshop, so you and your team can easily improve the accessibility of your communications to stakeholders.
(FREE to Shelter WA and PWdWA members)
Accessibility is Achievable
The digital world is a rapidly changing environment that all of us increasingly rely upon. However, the reality is, for some people living with disability, our communications may be inaccessible unless we use the accessibility tools that are already available within existing software.
This workshop is NOT only for your communications teams (although they are very welcome to join us) - it's for any of your team who create
- Word Documents
- PDFs
- Emails
- Powerpoint Presentations
Online Workshop
The 3-hour workshop will cover:
- How people with disability engage with your content? Includes a practical exercise of using a screen reader
- WCAG (The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1) in brief: a quick overview of the definitive accessibility standards
- WCAG and documents: how the standard applies to document accessibility
- Word, PDF and PowerPoint: looks at the accessibility features and workshops inaccessible Word and PowerPoint documents, turning them into accessible ones.
- The future: a brief update on some emerging standards and trends that are likely to impact on content production
A zoom link will be sent to each of the registered attendees 24 hours prior to the workshop
Shelter WA and PWdWA are working together on the Building Tenancy Skills Project funded by the Department of Social Services.
