Teach Access: Teaching About Accessible Tech

Microsoft, Facebook, Oath, Adobe, and Google are working together with major universities and other companies to assure that new hires graduate college with knowledge of the fundamental concepts of accessible design and development for people with disabilities. Teach Access is changing the face of the new tech workforce through curriculum change, influencing accreditation, faculty bootcamps, industry guest lectures, online tutorials, and student engagement programs.
