Web Accessibility Initiative

The Web Acces­si­bil­ity Ini­tia­tive has released their new web­site for pub­lic con­sump­tion. It’s a cleaner, more pro­fes­sional look that facil­i­tates eas­ier loca­tion of the help­ful resources avail­able there such as an Intro­d­u­ca­tion to Acces­si­bil­ity, Cur­ricu­lum on Web Con­tent Acces­si­bil­ity Guide­lines and a handy tem­plate for Acces­si­bil­ity Eval­u­a­tion Reports. If you haven’t before, take some time to look around, there are lots more good­ies where those came from!

They have also pub­lished Part 1 of a great arti­cle on Con­struct­ing a POUR web­site. You can reg­is­ter for the web­cast here.
