Overview

This workshop introduces participants to the principles of inclusive visual design and will help them adopt a point of view that is broader than Section 508 compliance.

Through interactive discussions and collaborative activities, we will cover topics including:

• Understanding accessibility and inclusivity, including relevant laws and standards
• The elements of accessible communications: content and plain language, typography, color, images, and hierarchy
• Applying the elements to Word documents, PowerPoint slides, and other commonly used communication formats

How You Will Benefit

Participants will gain an awareness of laws and standards related to accessibility, their role in creating accessible communications, and hands-on experience applying the elements of accessible communication to documents, presentations, and other materials.

Who Should Attend

We welcome anyone and everyone—with or without previous design experience—to join us for this course. It will be most beneficial for people who do have not formal training in graphic design and routinely create documents, presentations, and other materials.
