Brief description

The WCAG 2.0 guidelines will be released soon and it is vital that everyone be aware of the changes from WCAG 1.0 to ensure their website remains accessible to those with disabilities. Here at User Vision we have developed a specialist accessibility training course that will help you understand the new WCAG guidelines and how to implement them successfully.

Who is it for?

This training course is essential for anyone involved with the content or development of a website.

What will I learn?

Our new course will give you a comprehensive overview of the new WCAG 2.0 guidelines and identify the key differences from WCAG 1.0 as well as help you understand how to implement a successful WCAG 2.0 strategy.

After the half day course we are also providing the opportunity to put your specific questions to resident accessibility expert Mark Palmer. Mark will be available throughout the networking lunch to ask specific questions about your individual situation.

 Course Cost

The cost of this unique half day course is just £175 plus VAT. Lunch and all course materials will be provided for you.

User Vision reserves the right to cancel or reschedule a training course at any time.  In the unlikely event of this occurring, we will endeavor to give as much advanced notice as possible, if such an event occurs a full refund will be issued.  We do not take responsibility of any additional costs or expenses due to a cancelled or rescheduled course

Having our website examined by a specialist in the field was one benefit. Having the site used by some of our potential audience and the results being captured in a structured and systematic way was of help to us in developing our project, and it provides independent data for stakeholders in the Authority.
