Creating Accessible Documents Video Training

decorative

This six-part video series (6 videos, each around an hour long) is a deep-dive into creating accessible documents for use on the web. This training is also applicable for creating documents for D2L.

This topic gives you step-by-step instructions and best practices on how to make your Word documents accessible and unlock your content to everyone, including people with disabilities.

You learn, for example, how to work with the Accessibility Checker to tackle accessibility issues while you're writing your document. You'll also learn how to add alt texts to images so that people using screen readers are able to listen to what the image is all about. You can also learn about how to use fonts, colors, and styles to maximize the inclusiveness of your Word documents before sharing them with others.

Visit Microsoft Support for information on how to use Word.
