Developing an Accessibility Mindset – UX Design in 2021

Event Overview

Accessible software enables people in all walks of life experience to fully engage with products. Whether a disability is situational like winter gloves not working on a touch screen device, short-term like a broken arm inhibiting the use of a mouse, or long-term like permanent visual or hearing impairment, nearly all of us have experienced a disability in some way. Not only is creating accessible products the right thing to do, it can also have a direct impact on the bottom line. Join us to learn about how accessibility is becoming increasingly important in a post-pandemic digital world and why organizations should start thinking of accessibility as a value, not a feature.
