Both Waverley Borough Council and Tandridge District Council required some user testing on their waste forms. Whilst the more common usability testing was carried out, checking for functionality and looking at the technical aspects, SDS also user tested for digital accessibility. It’s critical to ensure that all forms operate for all users including those with disabilities.
Many of our partner organisations have been working hard to create a culture of accessibility throughout their organisations.
Sevenoaks, Central Bedfordshire and Tonbridge and Malling have all asked us to help with this by delivering several virtual, live and interactive group sessions to introduce digital accessibility.
SDS have developed an e-learning course on how to create accessible Word and PDF documents for online publication.
