My sincere thanks to The Accessibility TV Network for sponsoring my writing this week. Accessibility is a topic that’s incredibly important to me (here’s why), so I’m delighted to share this important initiative with you. Please do help out with the crowdfunding campaign if you can.
The U.N. estimates that there are more than 1 billion disabled people living in this world today. With their billions of dollars in marketing power, it’s important to reach them by making your digital experiences fully accessible. No matter whether you are a project manager, a usability professional, a designer, a developer, a consultant, a marketing or an HR professional, knowing what you can do to enhance the experiences you can offer can only lead to a better world for all.
There are many resources on the web where you can read about accessibility; or you could hire consultants to teach you or your company. Support The Accessibility TV Network and its crowd funding campaign. and you can avoid the frustrating search for learning material while finding affordable options to gain the knowledge you need. Keep up with increasing legal and regulatory requirements to make digital experiences accessible and include people with disabilities in the new digital world.
If you are expert consultants, keep up with your knowledge and reuse the material from the training network in your employment to teach others about accessibility.
Accessibility TV (or a11y TV) will create a subscription based training network that will provide you with searchable, relevant, and affordable video, audio, and text based courses suited to your needs. Delivered via the web or mobile apps, these courses will be designed and presented by industry-leading experts. The Accessibility TV network will make sure that you understand the needs of people with disabilities no matter what job requires you to serve their needs.
The funds from this crowd funding campaign will go to establish the infrastructure for the Accessibility TV network and develop courses when we begin offering the service. The funds will go to pay the high-quality professionals who will provide the best training experience you can find. We have designed the rewards so that you receive the best benefits for your early support.
Join us in making this project a great success.
