Accessibility for Online Learning

Accessibility for Online Learning

This program is for everyone who designs, facilitates, or manages online learning programs, including elearning, webinars, virtual classrooms, websites, computer-based job aids, social media, anything that involves technology - which a great deal of learning today does.

I believe it’s critical to consider accessibility, disability, and usability in online learning, because without understanding the types of assistive technologies learners may use and how to design with inclusion in mind, you may end up unintentionally excluding your learners from your training program.

So in this session, we’re going to learn how to create accessible online learning, and also learn how to evaluate our existing courses for accessibility. Participants will leave with templates and resources to get started on course accessibility right away.

Our presenter, Britne Jenke, CPTD, has been a member of ATD and an active member and leader of the award-winning Greater Las Vegas chapter since 2017, serving as its president in 2025/26.
