With the European Accessibility Act coming into effect on 28th June 2025, accessibility will no longer be optional, it will be a legal requirement for digital products and services across the EU. Businesses, designers, and product teams must act now to avoid costly redesigns and compliance issues down the line.
But accessibility isn’t just about compliance. It’s a critical skill for building ethical, inclusive, and future-ready digital products. Upskilling in accessibility today means leading the way in user-centered, legally sound design tomorrow.
This workshop is tailored for:
- Product Designers (UI/UX) - Full day
- Product Owners & Managers - Morning only
- Developer - Optional
You’ll gain practical tools to embed accessibility into your design process, from strategy and ideation to developer handoff. The day is split into two powerful sessions: Theory and practical.
✅ A full day of interactive learning. Work through real-world accessibility challenges with practical, actionable solutions.
✅ Comprehensive materials and resources. Get tools, templates, and frameworks to take home and apply right away.
✅ Food, drinks, and great company. Enjoy lunch, snacks, and coffee breaks while networking with like-minded professionals.
✅ Expert feedback and guidance. Actionable insights and real-world advice from industry-leading accessibility experts.
✅ A digital certificate of completion. Perfect for sharing on LinkedIn and showcasing your new skills!
