Hello and Happy New Year, everyone!
I have the most accessibility experience remediating MS Word files and working with PDF files. I am being tasked to work with our training infrastructure team, who works to build web content. While I have my DHS trusted tester certificate, I have done very little work for accessibility from the developer side of the house - is there any training out there, from the developer's lens, for accessibility/Section 508?
Thank you!
Claire

Hi Claire,
I do some work with Hassell Inclusion (a UK based accessibility company).
Some years ago I created an Accessibility for Developers training course
for them which we've kept up-to-date over the years.
It's still run now and again either by myself or one of their other
technical specialists.
The course gets good feedback and covers basic and more advanced knowledge.
You can find more information here:
