Accessibility Ambassadors: Accessible Slides

To provide an inclusive presentation experience for all your audience members, there are a number of accessibility best practices you should incorporate in your slides and preparation process. Presenters might not be aware of how their slide design and presentation delivery might exclude people with disabilities from an equivalent experience. Get tips on how to create, test, and deliver presentations that are accessible, inclusive, and engaging.

The Accessibility Ambassadors are glad to welcome guest presenters:

• Karen Shapiro, a user researcher who specializes in qualitative, inclusive research to create better products, better experiences, and better lives.
• Kellie Greaves, a University of Minnesota IT business relationship manager and passionate digital accessibility advocate.
