Advancing accessibility
When we’re not busy working to make our products and media accessible, we’re advancing accessibility in our industry and giving back to the community. Our team sits on advisory councils and contributes to public policy initiatives. We support global advocacy with W3C WCAG and the FCC Disability Advisory Council, and have even founded non-profit organizations such TeachAccess.org.
Teach access
One way we work to build an future accessible for everyone is by changing the way accessibility is taught in higher education. That’s why we co-founded Teach Access, a non-profit organization that brings together leading tech companies and academic institutions to work on how to best teach accessibility principles. We provide faculty bootcamps, guest lectures, internships, challenge grants for research, and curriculum development and industry partnerships. We also contribute to open source online learning tools that reflect and teach accessibility best practices.
