Answering the Question:
How long will it take?

May 3, 2022 9:00 AM PST - Online Webinar

This 45-minute webinar focuses on evaluating documents and projects that must be accessible. One of the hardest things to account for when responding to a client request or an RFP is understanding how accessibility will affect time and budget. Accessibility experts Chad Chelius and Dax Castro offer key questions and evaluation techniques for understanding how to evaluate documents or projects when they must be WCAG, AODA, DDA or Section 508 Compliant. All attendees will leave with several Accessibility handouts, including the Level of Effort Matrix Cheat Sheet. Our goal is to empower you with a greater understanding of how to evaluate their content and accurately account for the time it will take to create them.

Learn how to evaluate a PDF and estimate the time committment.

All Attendees Receive the Accessibility Level of Effort Matrix

This worksheet divides the type of work  by the complexity to give you a guideline for how long you should expect the average deliverable to take given solid remediation skills and proper workflow. The more elements in one column or another, the closer to the approximate pages per hour it will take to develop an accessible deliverable.

Other handouts include:

  • 10 Things you can do to improve accessibility without being an expert
  • Tips for writing accessibly
