What you'll learn

The web is designed to work for all people regardless of ability or disability, but accessibility for those with special needs is often overlooked in both the design and development processes. In this course, Developing Websites for Accessibility: Getting Started, you will gain foundational knowledge of common accessibility issues and how you can address them. First, you will learn how those with various disabilities access and use the web. Next, you will explore the WCAG guidelines and discover the ways in which you can meet them. Then, you will discover how to better design and code for those facing these issues. Finally, you will see how to make forms and media more accessible. When you are finished with this course, you will have a solid foundation to begin creating solutions that work, not just for those without disabilities and impairments, but for everyone.
