For Global Accessibility Awareness Day, we’re hosting a captioning workshop, stress management workshop, and concert feat Mandy Harvey.

The GAAD Festival is open to anyone with and without disabilities who wants to learn to add captioning to their videos to make them more accessible, to learn about stress management, and/or wants to enjoy a live concert.

The pandemic has revealed that society was generally unprepared, including providing accessible communications for a) employees of companies who are now working from home, and b) students who are now attending their classes remotely. We have produced step-by-step guidance for both small-scale and large-scale businesses and education providers on this topic.

Join RedShelf as we recognize Global Accessibility Awareness Day (GAAD) on May 21 by diving into the role that Open Educational Resources (OER) are playing in today’s course materials strategy and how to ensure the most accessible development and distribution of that content.

Web accessibility affects everyone who uses the internet but, unfortunately, it’s still something that’s too often overlooked by companies and development teams. The good news is that there is a growing accessibility community full of people who are eager to share ideas and discuss ways we can learn and improve as an industry.

Deque is excited to bring you this free webinar on Agile Accessibility. 

The current global pandemic has changed the way most of us do business in rapid fashion. The necessity to move our operations online has created a steep learning curve for employees and customers alike. But for those of us who live with disabilities, this shift has presented both hurdles and opportunities for inclusion. This year’s event will address both the hurdles and opportunities and suggest ways your business might best address them.
