'DDA Compliance For Websites'
one-day workshop shows how to
maximise your site's accessibility

Whether you are a web manager or developer, DDA compliance for websites is a big issue.

In one highly interactive day we'll teach you the simple, practical steps you can take to ensure your website complies with the Disability Discrimination Act.

At the same time we'll show you how to make your site more accessible to a wider audience. That includes people with and without disability.

Bespoke training
To ensure our DDA Compliance For Websites workshop delivers an appropriate level of training we tailor it to your requirements.

First we speak to you. Then we look at your site. Finally, we design a course that takes your needs into account.

In this way we ensure you gain the full benefit from the day and leave much better equipped to improve your site’s DDA compliance.

We also show you:

DDA Compliance For Websites is suitable for groups of two to eight people. It can be run as an open course for individuals from different organisations, or as an in-company course for people from the same organisation. A one-to-one master class package is also available.
