Level Up: next steps on your accessibility adventure
In my accessibility consultation work, a common theme is dev teams with lots of accessibility awareness and enthusiasm, but inconsistent implementation in the long term. It's hard to maintain all the work you did when you first started supporting your users with disabilities. Deadlines, business constraints and staff turnover can easily derail good intentions.
The good news is this inconsistency is a sign that a team is ready to level up their accessibility practice. I'll talk about techniques like role-based ownership, working groups and training roadmaps to make accessibility part of your routines rather than a one-off project. I'll share my experience with coaching teams as they take the next step in their accessibility journey, so you can find the path that works for your group.
