Panel: Achieving Accessibility in the Public Sector Through Usability Testing: codefor.ca/events/achieving-accessibility-in-the-public-sector-through-usability-testing/
Residents across Canada rely on digital platforms and products to access essential government services.
But all too often, those services fail to meet the needs of people with disabilities, even as public servants work hard to be compliant with the latest accessibility legislation.
So, how can governments go beyond compliance to achieve true accessibility?
Join Code for Canada on March 20 at 3:00 pm EST (1:00PM-3:00PM Alberta time) for a panel discussion on how usability testing is essential to delivering accessible public services.
You'll hear from:
Sheldon Bauld, Director of User Experience at the Government of Alberta.
Scott Herron, Accessibility Consultant and Advocate.
Pina D'Intino, Founder, Aequum Global Access Inc, Accessibility Speaker and Entrepreneur.
You’ll learn:
Why focusing only on legislative compliance isn’t effective.
How usability testing uncovered previously unknown accessibility issues with a government website.
How to leverage usability to testing to improve accessibility in your workplace.
