AccessibleEU launches the third edition of online course on Accessible Technology Design

AccessibleEU is launching the third edition of its online course “Accessible Technology Design”, which will be open from 7 July to 9 November on our online campus.  This online training course aims to teach the basics of universal accessibility in digital environments.

Students will be able to:

• Define accessibility and inclusive design as goals to achieve.
• Understand the principles of Universal Design.
• Distinguish the differences between legal and technical regulations.
• Know the legislation and standards in force in Europe.
• Understand that accessibility benefits every people and that it is a necessary objective.
• Learn about the limitations are in the design and not in the person.
• Learn about errors in design that cause exclusion.
• Understand why multiple designs should be avoided for the sake of accessibility.
• Learn about the principles of Cognitive Accessibility and why it is important.

Registration is already open on AccessibleEU’s online campus, and students will be able to access the course once it officially begins on 7 July. After that, they will be able to complete it at their own pace. The course has an estimated dedication time of 25 hours and it is imparted in English. The campus is fully accessible.
