Want to make sure your courses/content reach as many people as possible? Make it accessible.
Accessible content means no one is disadvantaged. It means all people and groups get equal access and equal opportunity. This means you'll reach your maximum potential audience. In addition, it's also a good ethical and legal approach because you're minimising barriers and aiming for inclusivity.
We handle as many accessibility features as we can automatically (we're still working on a few listed below). But there are some things that you as an author will need to do to make sure your content is accessible. See our [article on using iQualify accessibly] for more information.
We recommend getting familiar with the accessibility management principles at https://www.w3.org/WAI/.
