Ensuring Public Sector Website Accessibility and Compliance
Countdown to Reservations End Date
Event Details
Description
The key to meeting the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) Accessibility Regulations 2018 and recent Website Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, is to have strong leadership from management and accessibility champions. The topic is highly complex and has a significant strategic element. Organisations that do not build strong leadership for accessibility are bound to have it become an unfocused activity by a small number of staff, and ultimately become a significant legal and reputational risk for the organisation.
This one day online course is focused on understanding the regulations, policy, and how to cover all of the important management tasks to defend against legal challenges, along with embedding accessibility into strategy and policy to begin embedding accessibility as a responsibility for all staff.
By the end of this training, delegates should have the knowledge and tools to:
• Know the effects and timescales of the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) Accessibility Regulations 2018
• Apply the Website Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2
• Know their organisations responsibilities under the regulations
• Know how to write and what is included into a compliant accessibility statement
• Know steps they can take to include accessibility into procurement processes
• Understand responsibilities when it comes to 3rd party content
• Know how to engage senior management on accessibility
