We have scheduled Toolkit training and accessibility training workshops for clients staff to book. Staff from our clients can simply book a workshop in the below calendar.
We have courses scheduled in Italian, Spanish and English. The English sessions are held at two different times each week to cater for European and North American/Australian timezones.
Remember to book with your institutional email address.
We have four modules which are available via Teams or the Brickfield Academy: Accessibility Foundations, Web Accessibility, Media Accessibility and Document Accessibility.
Much of the content we create now involves multi-media. Videos, Podcasts, Audio files and images. This workshop brings attendees through the different considerations when creating the different media types, including:
Introduction to a set of personas and examination of the issues they face using media.
A look at different types of images, and how to approach ensuring their use is accessible to all.
A look at audio and video and how video can be added to online courses.
First steps with Captions, and different ways to create them.
This event is only for Brickfield Accessibility Toolkit subscribers. Other registrations will be ignored.
A lot of material created by academic staff and provided to and used by students in online courses tend to be either MS Office documents (Word Document, Excel Spreadsheets, PowerPoint Presentations) or PDF files – which are often printed or exported versions of the office documents. This session will look at MS Word and PowerPoint (or Google Docs and Google Slides) and how to create better new documents and improve existing documents to provide a better experience for all users. We will also look at some of the other features available in Office 365 (or Google) for users.
This event is only for Brickfield Accessibility Toolkit subscribers. Other registrations will be ignored.
