Accessibility for Digital Designers


Microcredential


Program Code: ADD3

Program Overview

In today's digital world, accessibility is essential for user-centered design. The Accessible Canada Act plays a crucial role in ensuring inclusivity for individuals with disabilities. Our program explores accessibility principles, guidelines, and best practices tailored to designers working specifically with online mediums.

Led by industry experts well-versed in accessibility and AODA (Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act) compliance, our program offers a dynamic learning experience that blends theoretical knowledge with practical application. You'll delve into topics such as accessible design patterns, assistive technologies, and WCAG compliance. You’ll also acquire the skills to assess and overcome common accessibility barriers, ensuring your designs not only cater to individuals with disabilities but also align with AODA web standards.

Additional Information:  This is a micro-credential certificate program.

Upon completion of this Micro-credential, students will be equipped to: 

Integrate accessibility principles, design patterns, evaluation practices and WCAG compliance into digital design artefacts in alignment with AODA web standards so that all people can easily interact with web experiences.
