Dealing with accessibility and Design Systems can be overwhelming and costly. 

That's why we've developed a new workshop where we'll teach you how to build accessible design systems and components from the ground up

We’re proud to host Creating Accessible Design Systems - a two day workshop on September 9 and 10 – Online  

Hosted by Marcelo Paiva, the creator of the WCAG plugin for Figma and Sarah Massengale, a blind technologist, who will give participants firsthand insights into the challenges and solutions for designing experiences with accessibility in mind.

 

Over the course of two days, we’ll cover the fundamentals and advanced techniques of accessible design, ensuring that product owners, user researchers, and product designers can plan, architect and design high-quality systems that are usable by everyone.


What you will learn:
🔹 Define accessible user stories and acceptance criteria
🔹 Design accessible components and experiences
🔹 Conduct user research with participants with disabilities
🔹 Create accessible prototypes and test them with screen reader users
🔹 Collaborate and hand-off accessible components with developers
