About the workshop:
Accessibility isn’t just about compliance or checklists – it’s about making creative work, products, and experiences more effective for everyone. Whether you shape ideas through design, development, marketing, or client strategy, accessibility offers a chance to expand your impact and reach.
In this interactive workshop, we’ll explore accessibility as both a responsibility and an opportunity for growth. Through real-world examples and hands-on exercises, participants will learn how to identify common barriers and apply simple, practical tools to create more inclusive outcomes. Together, we’ll uncover how small shifts – like improving color contrast, rethinking type hierarchy, writing clearer copy, or testing keyboard navigation – can improve the way people connect with your work.
This session will balance foundational principles with practical takeaways. We’ll begin by breaking accessibility into approachable concepts, then move to interactive activities where you’ll practice spotting common issues and applying tools like contrast checkers, screen reader simulations, and accessibility plug-ins. By working through these exercises as a group, you’ll leave not only with new knowledge, but also with the confidence to start applying it to your work right away.
