The Born-Accessible Design Approach: Cost-Effective, Inclusive, Compliant

NOTE TIME CHANGE: This session will begin at 12:30 pm Eastern Time. Most digital technologies are still built and released then remediated for accessibility later–an expensive, inefficient, and exclusionary process. In contrast, the born-accessible approach ensures that accessibility is built in from the start, by involving people with disabilities at every stage of design, development, and procurement. This user-centered strategy improves productivity, enhances user experience, reduces costs, and helps meet legal and regulatory requirements. Join us to explore practical frameworks, key components, and emerging research to help make born-accessible design a key part of your digital accessibility strategy. Real-Time Captioning and Video Sign Language will be provided. Individuals may submit questions in advance of the session during the registration process.
