WHAT'S IN THE 5 DAY CHALLENGE?
DAY 1—Why Web Accessibility? (EDUCATE)
Web accessibility is making anything you build for the web open to those with disabilities that may need extra assistance to see all of your content. Some with disabilities use special technology like screen readers to access the web and in order to interface with that technology properly, what you build needs to be coded in a particular way for everything to work. Whether you use drag and drop visual builders, code from scratch, or hire a developer, this challenge will give you information you need to know to reach a wider audience.
DAY 2—ANALYZE for Accessibility Errors
Based on research by experts in the web accessibility space, we know that there are certain errors that tend to crop up on almost every website that hasn't been built for accessibility. Many of these common errors occur in the design phase of development. It is always easier to build with accessibility in mind than to fix an existing web project for accessibility. So by knowing this information, you can make sure your next project is compliant and save you tons of time by building things right the first time. In addition, by having access to a free tool to scan existing web projects, you will save time by having a list of exactly what you need to fix on you websites, funnels and landing pages that are already published.
DAY 3—SOLVE Common Accessibility Errors Pt. 1
Now that we know the common accessibility errors, how do you fix them? We will spend two days giving you SOLUTIONS to the problems you encounter so that you can know exactly what you need to do to fix these common errors. One area we will focus on is making your images accessible. Are you familiar with alternative or alt text? If not, we will not only educate you but also provide you with tips with a copywriting expert as our guest speaker.
DAY 4—SOLVE Common Accessibility Errors Pt. 2
We will continue to give you SOLUTIONS to common accessibility errors. Many web projects are now multimedia experiences and it is important to know how to add audio and video to your sites so that they are accessible to your WHOLE audience, including those with disabilities. On this day, we will also share resources on how to speed up the process of audio and video editing for accessibility so that you can save tons of time!
DAY 5—EARN, Accessibility is an Opportunity
With 97% of websites found to be non-compliant with existing web accessibility laws in the U.S. alone, there is a lot of work to be done. Experts in this space are in high demand as a result of increasing enforcement. Many businesses are unaware of their legal responsibility to make their websites, funnels, and landing pages accessible. A web designer knowledgeable in this space can help save their clients thousands of dollars in fines and lawsuits and as a result, jobs in this area pay more on average than the typical graphic or web designer job. Learn skills that are needed for the future and you will have job security and a salary to match!
