About this event

This session is your chance to ask all your burning questions about accessibility! Whether you're struggling with WCAG guidelines, unsure about best practices, or curious about the latest accessibility tools and techniques, we'll be here to provide answers and share insights.

To get the most out of it, I invited UX Research and CRO Laura Wissiak and Accessibility Specialist Emma Dawson to join the stage and provide you with all information needed.

This interactive "Ask Me Anything" session is designed for developers, testers, designers, and anyone involved in creating inclusive digital experiences. Come prepared with your questions, and let’s have an open discussion to tackle any A11y challenges you’re facing and help you improve accessibility in your projects.

Focus: Everything accessibility related

Target audience: Everyone (Project Managers, Designers, Developers, Testers)

Note: At the end of the session, I have a small exercise for you to tackle at home and carry out your very first accessibility audit. The results will be discussed in the very last session.

Accessibility Webinar Series is the new format here at GDG Vienna. Hosted by Julia Undeutsch, every 4th Thursday of the month a new topic in the field of accessibility will be presented, which should help beginners and intermediate accessibility advocates to become more familiar with accessibility in design, development and testing.

At the end of the series, participants can look forward to a live event directly in Vienna, which will be held in autumn.

Events are held in English and last between 60-90 minutes. Afterwards, the speakers will be available for a Q&A. Questions can be asked in English or German. Questions can be asked about the respective presentation but also about accessibility in general.

Recording, slides and article can be found afterwards on the event page and on Accessibility First.
