Kiosk present Accessibility & Inclusive Design seminar


Following recent appearances in Manchester and Cumbria, Kiosk’s Dave Holden was invited to speak on his specialist subject – Accessibility and Inclusive Design - to an audience in Blackburn.

The half-day workshop, hosted by Blackburn Technology Management Centre, covered 4 main sections:

- Disability Discrimination Act 1995
- Understanding accessibility
- How to build accessible websites
- Providing accessible content

Organised by MITER [Manchester Institute for Telematics and Employment Research] and Blackburn With Darwen Borough Council, the workshop highlighted the requirement for websites to gain legal compliance; how this can be achieved; and the importance of user-focus in generating and presenting content. Dave also stressed the importance of user testing, and how this is an invaluable element of any successful web development project.

Dave is recognised as a leading web accessibility expert, having developed successful sites for a number of government organisations, public sector clients and education bodies.
