FAQs
What is accessibility coaching?
Accessibility coaching is a tailored approach to integrating inclusive practices within organisations. Unlike one-off workshops, it provides ongoing support, guidance, and training that help teams apply accessibility principles in their daily work.
It shifts accessibility from a compliance checklist to a shared responsibility, empowering employees and leaders to create digital systems, content, products, and services that are usable by everyone.
Is there a certification for accessibility?
Yes, there are recognised accessibility certifications that validates your organisation’s knowledge of accessibility principles, legislation, and practical implementation.
However, accessibility is more than just about formal certification. Real impact comes when organisations embed accessibility in their culture through ongoing inclusivity training, ensuring that teams not only understand the standards but can confidently apply them in everyday practice.
How can leaders support inclusivity training in the workplace?
Leaders play a critical role in making sure accessibility coaching is effective. They can champion it by clearly communicating why inclusivity matters, providing time and resources for teams to engage in training, and modelling inclusive behaviours themselves.
Strong leadership also means measuring progress and recognising achievements, so accessibility and inclusion become part of everyday culture rather than a one-off initiative.
