We have a professional and legal obligation to ensure that all of our digital content is accessible. In this session we’ll look at what we mean by accessibility and why it is important, then we’ll explore some practical techniques and useful resources for producing and delivering accessible presentations.

Please note that being familiar with creating and editing files using Microsoft PowerPoint is a necessary prerequisite for this workshop.

The recording and resources from the last time this session ran can be found on the RDP Canvas site.
