Hello,

I'm not sure from your message if the training is just for you or for an
organisation you're connected with.

Anyway, I do some work with a UK company called Hassell Inclusion and they
have a number of accessibility training courses available - concerning web
accessibility and PDFs. I run the course for web developers.

There's a list of all the ones they offer at
https://www.hassellinclusion.com/hassell-inclusion-academy/ and you can
download a brochure that contains more detail.

Hope that helps.

Regards
Graham Armfield

See:
Digital Accessibility Foundations - Free Online Course
https://www.w3.org/WAI/fundamentals/foundations-course/

While that course provides the foundation for document accessibility, it does not include document specifics. It focus on websites and applications.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security offers free web testing training (referred to as Trusted Tester training) and electronic document accessibility training. You can read more at https://www.dhs.gov/trusted-tester and you can select their Self Enrollment Portal to gain access to all of these self-paced trainings.

Thanks!

For document accessibility my go-to resources are WebAIM and anything by Bevi Chagnon or Karen McCall. The WebAIM document accessibility course is the best course I've found on document accessibility. It runs every month or so and is self-paced. (https://webaim.learn.usu.edu/). It's not free but it is reasonably priced. Microsoft also has a lot of free videos on accessibility in the Microsoft office Suite.

For web accessibility, Deque, WebAIM, and Level Access all have free resources and stuff you have to pay for.

For HTML accessibility, Jen Simmons course HTML Essentials (https://www.linkedin.com/learning/html-essential-training-4) is really good.
Sorry about the URLs. I haven't figured out how to embed links on my iPhone.
