Make your website more accessible to more users with Introduction to Web Accessibility

Eve Andersson, Manager of Accessibility Engineering at Google, emphasizes the importance of web accessibility, highlighting that 285 million people globally are visually impaired, which surpasses the combined populations of England, Germany, and Japan. As websites become more complex, accessibility often declines, but Google's online course, "Introduction to Web Accessibility," aims to address this issue by teaching developers how to make their sites more accessible to visually impaired users. The course, running from September 17th to 30th, offers practical guidance on updating HTML structures and using Google Chrome extensions to inspect site accessibility, all without compromising user experience. Designed for developers familiar with HTML, JavaScript, and CSS, the course seeks to empower developers to create universally accessible web experiences, with registration now open.
