Microsoft Office Accessibility
Learning Resources

What follows is a collection of resources for learning how to use Microsoft
Office products with a screen reader.
Source providers are listed using level 2 headings. Each individual resource
is listed at a level 3 heading. This was done to make it easier for screen
reader navigation.
More resources will be added to this list as I discover them. As more
resources are added to the list of ACB Community Calls they will be
eventually added to this page. Please reach out to me if you have
suggestions for resources which should be added.
