Advanced Accessible InDesign (Level 2)

In this hands-on, virtual training we cover more advanced in-depth topics of working and reformatting content so it can become accessible, followed up by using Acrobat Professional for testing and tag review. This is Level 2 of our Accessible InDesign training.

This course covers a collection of key concepts and tasks of laying out and fixing content and some clever workarounds to ensure a better end user experience with assistive technologies (ATs).

With in-person Q&A and hands-on exercises, you will have the time to self-evaluate your understanding of this topic and address remediation issues you may have encountered.
