I also give training on Web Accessibility, in particular in Turkish. An Introduction to Web Accessibility in Turkish (Web Erişilebilirliği: Standartlar, Kilavuzlar ve Değerlendirme Teknikleri) is available on METU Open Courseware platform. I have also given three trainings in Turkish (if you are interested in any of these trainings, please let me know via email on my home page):
- “Introduction to Web Accessibility”: This is an introduction that has three parts: Introduction to Web accessibility, Web accessibility stakeholders, and Evaluation and Measurement.
- “Accessibility Workshop: Web Accessibility”: This is a two day workshop that includes training on introduction to web accessibility, page structure, web forms, tables, page-level content/images, menus and multimedia/rich Applications.
- “Accessibility Workshop: Social Media Accessibility”: This workshop teaches techniques to make social media content accessible.
