Level Up: Creating an Experiential Accessibility Lab

How do you move beyond theory and really help people “get” accessibility? In this special Global Accessibility Awareness Day (GAAD) session of Workday’s Accessibility Level Up series, Joe Rogers and Greg Aikens share how Workday built an experiential accessibility lab from the ground up and how you can adapt these ideas within your own organization. We’ll cover what an accessibility lab is (and what it is not), lessons learned from Workday’s lab journey, and examples of how other companies like Accenture, Microsoft, and Google have approached similar spaces. You’ll come away with practical considerations, pitfalls to avoid, and ideas for using labs to drive lasting culture change, deeper empathy, and better digital products for people with disabilities.
