Creating Accessible Content: Writing for the Web

The first installment in our new learning series, is designed to help you build a strong foundation in digital accessibility. This 30-minute self-paced training introduces essential principles for writing clear, inclusive, and user-friendly web content that is accessible to all visitors—including those with disabilities. This course is a must for anyone involved in digital content creation—from writers and editors to web publishers and agency staff.

The training is available in two formats, an instructor-led session (ILT) and an online version (OLT) through the state's Learning Management System (LMS). Not sure which format is best for you? Check out this blog comparing the two courses. 

PDF Accessibility Training

A two-part training presented by ABLR to help all North Carolina state employees learn how they can ensure the PDFs they create are easily available and more usable for everyone. PDF remediation involves making changes to PDF documents to ensure they are accessible to people who use screen readers and other assistive technologies. This process includes adding meaningful alternative text to images, properly tagging document content for structure and reading order, ensuring tables are understandable, and creating form fields that can be completed by all users.
