Course Description:
Digital accessibility is no longer a “nice to have”—it is a fundamental requirement for ensuring equitable access to public services and information. In this webinar, we’ll feature the state of Minnesota and how they have accomplished their ADA compliance goals. We’ll discuss what ADA compliance means in a digital context, the risks of non-compliance, and practical steps organizations can take to embed accessibility into their policies, contracts, and everyday operations.
