Get up to speed quickly on making your Microsoft Word documents accessible for everyone while meeting state and federal accessibility standards. In this hands-on workshop, we’ll start with a brief overview of common accessibility challenges in Word and then jump right into practice.
You’ll learn how to:
- Use the Styles tool to create a clean, navigable document structure
- Write effective alt text for images and charts, ensure readable color contrast and design accessible tables and links
- Use the MS Word Accessibility Checker to find and fix common issues
By the end of this session, you’ll be ready to create inclusive documents for all.
Note: If you would like to learn how to convert the accessible Word document you create in this session into accessible PDF format, join the Quick Start: Make Your PDF Documents Accessible workshop this Wednesday, October 30.
