Courses

In order for accessibility work to be cost-effective and sustainable, expertise in accessibility must be anchored internally. Our courses increase your employees' ability to identify accessibility issues and improve the accessibility of your digital solutions. Our goal is for your employees to build up knowledge and insight into the subject, so that the need for external support is reduced.
