Developers’ Guide to Accessibility Issues and Remediation

The focus of this class is to equip developers and site administrators with the skills to identify, analyze, and remediate digital accessibility barriers. Participants will gain a deep understanding of WCAG 2.2 standards and the ADA’s legal framework. Key objectives include mastering the implementation of effective alternative text, understanding the importance of well-designed focus states, and managing focus within web applications.

Additionally, learners will explore the importance of semantic HTML over non-semantic elements and learn to retain functionality at high-zoom levels up to 400%.
