Web accessibility training for University of Exeter web editors
Overview
Helping to create a socially just future, through our education and research, is part of the University's purpose as outlined in its Strategy 2030.
An integral feature of this vision is making our websites as accessible as possible. This activity will be steered by regulatory requirements, supplemented by other recognised forms of best practice, and informed by user feedback.
Web accessibility is primarily the process of creating web content so that it's accessible to people with disabilities. However, web accessibility – in some form – can help everyone who accesses web content. To learn how this is the case, see 'what is web accessibility?'.
Not sure where to start?
If you're new to web accessibility, or to working with it on the University websites, it can be hard to know where to start. Essentially, this will depend on your role(s). See the web accessibility starting point for more information.
