Multiple free events are scheduled throughout the day. We’ll start with a fast-paced webinar in the morning hosted by the University of California. Then the UCSF location is hosting multiple individual events in the afternoon on Universal Design Principles, the Interactive Process for staff and student disability accommodations, and a DEI Digital Accessibility Allies Panel to round off the day.
Event Type: Private/Internal Events
We will have 4 almost full days of workshops; 2 Thursdays and 2 Fridays. In the first week we will begin with the basics, so that everybody will be on the same page with regards to accessibility and so that they will be able to build upon these basics. In the second week we will have an external, veteran accessibility lead presenting more advanced concepts of accessibility. We will also include people with disabilities and work together with them on some common problems and fixes.
I wanted to contribute to Global Accessibility Awareness Day, therefore I decided to do a quick analysis and evaluate the state of accessibility for top Slovenian domains, from both public and private sector. This will be a private event but I plan to share my findings, at least as an overview. This is the first event that is targeted to Slovenia, so I am calling it Slovenian Accessibility Awareness Day. My ambition is that with time it will acquire larger public interest.
We are running a global campaign to improve Accessibility awareness amongst our volunteer community, Outreach, where they learn about Accessibility and also earn the Accessibility Fundamentals badge on the Microsoft Learning platform. The campaign will also feature expert talks to provide information on Microsoft Accessibility Design Vision Etiquette and Demo of Built-in Accessibility Tools in Microsoft Tools.
