Get up to speed quickly on making your PowerPoint presentations accessible for everyone while meeting state and federal accessibility standards. In this hands-on workshop, we’ll begin with a brief overview of common accessibility challenges in PowerPoint and then dive straight into practical solutions.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Create clear, accessible slide content
  • Utilize accessible visuals
  • Structure slides for logical navigation, making sure your multimedia content is inclusive
  • Use PowerPoint’s built-in accessibility checker 

By the end of this workshop, you’ll be crafting inclusive presentations that captivate your audience.
