Practical Accessibility with Jason Nakai

With new federal laws in place, accessibility is a huge priority for government agencies and organizations that receive federal funding. But accessibility is more than just technical specifications. Information Architect and Usability Engineer Jason Nakai joins the show to discuss the practical aspects of accessibility projects — for websites and software. We share experiences from a “simple” website accessibility project to a large-scale, federal software accessibility effort. We detail the importance of setting expectations and training, and discuss different approaches for project management. < Download MP3 >      < Listen on ctrlclickcast.com > Show Notes: Fuerte: Supporting Relief Efforts in Puerto Rico WCAG W3C Guidance on Applying WCAG 2.0 to Non-Web Information and Communications Technologies (WCAG2ICT) United States Access Board ADA Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Final Standards and Guidelines Meaningful sequence VPAT (Voluntary Product Accessibility Template) Microsoft Visual Studio Team Servies Developing a Web Accessibility Business Case for Your Organization: Overview W3C Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts Review our show on Stitcher Sponsored By
