Hot Topic: Accessible IT – Using PDF, Flash and Web Content Management

16th February 2007, 00:00am - 00:01am, Central London Past event

Have you kept up to date with the latest developments in accessible IT?

Access to information and communication technology by disabled people is fundamental in allowing talented disabled people to realise their potential.

As IT professionals become increasingly responsible for ensuring that their organisation's systems and communications are accessible to disabled people, software companies have responded by adapting traditionally inaccessible programmes such as Flash and PDF.

Jon Gooday from AbilityNet, one of the UK's leading experts in accessible IT, has designed this event to bring you up to speed with the new advances in the application of these popular software packages.

AbilityNet is a national charity that makes it easier for disabled adults to use computers and the internet by adapting and adjusting their technology.

Why attend?

This event will enable you to:

  • Understand the barriers that PDF, Flash and Web Content Management systems have traditionally presented to disabled users.
  • Use new software features to effectively create accessible documents and web content.
  • Learn about how to keep up to date with accessible IT and gain practical tips from fellow professionals.

Who should attend?

IT professionals, web designers, IT procurement experts, access managers.
