Accessibility is first and foremost about people, not about standards and compliance. Sam Proulx from our partner Fable expands on how involving users with disabilities can help make your product better for everyone. medium.com/push-ux/nothin…

McDonald's is starting to add a screen reader (JAWS Kiosk) to self-order kiosks to make them accessible to blind or low vision users so they have the ability to make food orders themselves. tpgi.com/mcdonalds-part…

3/3 ā€œIf you don’t train your designers in accessibility, annotations are useless. So, train your designers for goodness' sake!ā€ @annaecook. See how Upskill gets this done: makeitfable.com/fable-upskill-… #a11yTO #a11yTOconf

1/ 5 It’s day two of #a11yTO! We loved Digital Accessibility Lead CBC News, Niki Ramesh’s session, ā€œHow to Engage Accessibility Championsā€ today. Some of our favorite takeaways:

Fable (@makeitfable) 's Twitter Profile Photo

2/5 ā€œWho is an accessibility champion? Passive and active champions are equally valuable to you." #a11yTOconf #a11y

Fable (@makeitfable) 's Twitter Profile Photo

3/5 A champion’s network can start with just a few folks forming an informal network, which can scale over time. Formal networks can include #a11y policy development, standardized certifications, and defining skill levels. #a11yTOconf

Fable (@makeitfable) 's Twitter Profile Photo

4/5 "While defining skill levels can help chart someone’s progress. It can also be a barrier for people in learning non-linearly.ā€ #a11yTOconf #a11y

Fable (@makeitfable) 's Twitter Profile Photo

5/5 Niki instead advocates for a champion’s journey of learning, sharing, and guiding. See how Fable Upskill's customized programming guides your team to learn and share knowledge based on their needs, #a11y stage, and function: makeitfable.com/fable-upskill-…
