NDEAM Resources: LinkedIn Learning Courses on Accessibility

October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM)! All month long, I’ll be sharing some of my favorite resources on accessibility and disability inclusion in the workplace.

This post features some of my favorite LinkedIn Learning courses on accessibility.

LinkedIn Learning, originally Lynda.com and now offered through LinkedIn, is a premium feature available to subscribers. Companies may also offer access to LinkedIn Learning as part of their professional development resources.

I’ve taken the courses below to expand my own knowledge on accessibility.

• Making a Case for Accessibility in Your Organization: Get started on your accessibility journey by focusing on culture, developing a strategy, applying accessibility goals to the business, and investing in tools and processes you need. Learn how to test and scale your accessibility practices and craft your company narrative.
• Digital Accessibility for the Modern Workplace (with Audio Descriptions): In this course, the author shares technology solutions for each type of disability and provides best practices for developing more inclusive experiences in meetings, emails, presentations, and social media posts.
• Supporting Accessibility in a Hybrid Workplace: Great practical tips for exploring elements that often get overlooked when developing content for people who use screen readers and meeting software. Learn how to lead accessible meetings so everyone can comprehend, collaborate, and contribute their expertise.
• Foundations of Accessible Elearning: As elearning continues to grow, it’s more important than ever to ensure that your course is easily accessible to your learners. Find out what you need to know to bring better learning access into your curriculum and put it into practice at your organization.

LinkedIn Learning has a category for accessibility courses, videos, and learning paths that is updated as new content is added. Check it out here.
