So, this week I’ve been bopping around. I’ll detail my work below more coherently, but for a TL;DR: continuing to pen the accessibility training (it’s almost ready to go online!), helping with project management on a new service center project, and editing photo IDs.

But first, have a low quality photo of me and Bucky a moment before he leapt for freedom

Accessibility Training

So this is really exciting for me! Maddy, Suloni, and Estella have been kind enough to let me spend more work hours than I probably should have on writing an accessibility training for designers. This is really an area close to my heart, because I’ve decided it’s the area in which I would like to pursue a career. It really combines a lot of areas I love, such as research and writing, design and development, and client communication.

This overview covers a quick summary of legal requirements and W3C recommendations, as well as more hands-on steps STAs can take to ensure accessibility. If anyone wants to chat more about web accessibility and what it means beyond not getting legal action for violations, let me know!
