About the course
Content
The course will start with theoretical foundations but quickly transition to exercises, tips, and tricks for applying the knowledge in practice. You can expect the following from the course:
- Basic overview of topics such as landmarks, focus order, alt-texts, etc.
- Familiarize yourself with screen readers and learn basic navigation with one
- Exercises with tools/plugins for evaluating existing websites
- Exercises with tools/plugins for reviewing your design files
- Exercises for creating markups/annotations for design handoff
The goal of the course is to increase confidence in taking responsibility for accessibility work as a UX designer.
Target audience
The course is aimed at teams and companies that have started exploring accessibility but still feel uncertain about the practical steps to take. Some prior knowledge is advantageous, but participants are not expected to be experts in the subject in any way. The course is adapted for Mac users who work in Figma.
