This interactive session introduces the fundamentals of digital accessibility and why it matters at UCLA.

Participants will learn what accessibility means in a digital context, gain insight into disability culture, and see a live screen reader demonstration. The training will also cover practical tips for creating accessible documents, websites, and media, including proper use of heading structure, writing effective alt-text, and creating descriptive hyperlinks.

By the end of the session, attendees will have a clear understanding of how small changes in everyday digital practices can make a big impact in ensuring equity and inclusion for all.
