Creating Accessible Online Courses with Storyline 360 (Digital Accessibility Webinar)

Wednesday, April 3, 2024, from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. PT

In the variety of eLearning platforms used to help content authors create online courses, many claim to let you easily and quickly create courses that support the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). These platforms provide tools to address fundamental accessibility issues such as accessible course controls, accessible videos as well as basic keyboard support, and the option to incorporate accessible quizzes within a course module. However, authors must properly implement the accessibility features as well as be aware of the fundamental accessibility limitations in each platform that need to be resolved to meet accessibility requirements. Join Michael Parker in our upcoming webinar to explore key considerations when working with one of the most popular course authoring platforms, Storyline 360.
