WCET, a leader in the practice, policy, and advocacy of digital learning in higher education, recently partnered with WebAIM (Web Accessibility In Mind), to conduct a comprehensive website review for accessibility across the WCET website. For an organization who recently launched a new website and keeps accessibility on the forefront of all content creation, the results of the WebAIM audit were incredibly insightful. During this webcast, panelists discussed the process of the website audit, results, and strategies for ensuring websites are accessible. They also highlighted major changes implemented to improve accessibility.
