The State of Digital Accessibility
Originally delivered internally as a QA Consultants lunch and learn as part of Global Accessibility Awareness Day, this presentation evolved into a virtual webinar to bring awareness about inclusive design and accessibility across the digital landscape. It provides a high-level view of the importance of digital accessibility, the impacts of websites and apps that miss the mark, the latest trends and performance statistics, and recommendations for how all organizations can become more accessible-compliant with its own digital assets. Recorded from a live presentation on May 16, 2024, the webinar will be available to all audiences on-demand in the following days.
