No Learner Left Behind: Designing Accessible Learning Programs
Speaker: Maureen Orey
Learning professionals must be able to design and deliver courses that work for people who are blind or visually impaired, deaf or hard-of-hearing, have a cognitive processing or motor disorder. In this session, you will learn about all aspects of creating an accessible learning program that is also Section 508 compliant. We'll identify what you can and cannot do during the design process to create accessible visuals, activities, and quizzes that engage your learners and optimize the learning process. We'll also examine options for assessing learning, testing your system, and integrating with your LMS. This session will the challenge you and open your mind to the importance of designing and delivering accessible learning programs. This session was recorded at the ATD 2019 TechKnowledge conference in West Palm Beach, Florida.
