AODA and WCAG Principles for Accessible UX Design DESN 9192

New
Online

Our AODA and WCAG Principles for Accessible UX Design course helps prepare designers to work confidently in environments regulated by the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) while aligning with global accessibility standards, including the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). In this course, accessibility is treated not as a compliance checklist but as a design responsibility, a human dignity issue, a legal obligation under AODA, and a competitive professional advantage. Get the foundational knowledge you need to be able to design responsibly in environments where accessibility is mandatory (like banking, government, healthcare, and enterprise environments). Learn how to think, decide, and create through an accessibility-first lens, and explore how design decisions determine whether people experience access, exclusion, or humiliation.
