Today, Capian would like to offer you a course dealing with web accessibility. First of all, what is web accessibility? Then, a digital content is said to be accessible when any person (regardless of his or her handicap or disability) can interact with and understand this content. The digitization of society has highlighted the importance of the web in social integration and in the participation of collective life, that's why some accessibility standards that we will see in this course exist. Each email in this course will be an opportunity for you to learn a little more about accessibility and find ways to apply these standards to each of your websites.
