Welcome to the Equal Access Academy! We're so glad you're here to check out ways to increase your knowledge about accessibility. The Academy had over one thousand attendees in 2022, so you're in good company if you're checking this out for the first time.
New trainings in 2023:
- Accessibility in a Flash (30 minute lunch sessions on a specific accessibility topic)
- Accessibility Awareness 201
- Creating Accessible Marketing and Social Media 201 & 202 (Canva, Instagram, Facebook, InDesign)
- Managing My Disability (Separate sessions for staff/supervisors and students)
- Disability in the Classroom

Descriptions of each training are under the calendar. We highly recommend starting with Accessibility Awareness 101 before you move on to more specific trainings.
