Australian uni launches first web accessibility course for professionals

Australia’s first university-backed web accessibility course offers industry professionals the practical skills needed to meet international accessibility standards, the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0.

A joint venture by Media Access Australia and the University of South Australia, the Professional Certificate in Web Accessibility aims to support the Australian Government’s commitment to making government websites accessible as part of the National Transition Strategy (NTS), by equipping technical and managerial staff with web accessibility expertise.

The first course for 2012 will run from 16 April – 25 May.
