Accessibility becomes sustainable when it is embedded into the policies, procedures and governance that shape everyday decisions. Our Accessibility in Organisational Policies Workshop helps you identify where accessibility should be incorporated across your governance framework and operational policies. Using ISO 30071-1 as the foundation, we help policy owners understand the questions they need to answer, the decisions they need to make and the practical implications of those decisions.

This workshop is designed for organisations that want accessibility to become part of business-as-usual rather than remaining dependent on individual champions.

Many organisations have pockets of good accessibility practice. The challenge is ensuring those practices survive organisational change, staff turnover, supplier changes and competing business priorities.

By the end of the process, policy owners will have greater confidence, clarity and practical direction for embedding accessibility into the way the organisation works.
