In this video, you’ll learn about the legal framework surrounding digital accessibility in the United States, including Section 508 and its adoption of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.0 Level AA) as the standard for digital content accessibility. You’ll discover the four key principles of accessible content – perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust – and understand how they apply to creating digital materials that work for everyone. You’ll also explore practical implications of these requirements, learning when your organization is legally required to make content accessible and why it’s best practice regardless of legal obligations.
