Workplace Accessibility Training
Train the Trainer
Delivering inclusive and accessible learning
Effective workplace learning should give every participant the opportunity to understand, engage, practise and apply what they have learned. However, inaccessible materials, fast-paced delivery, unclear activities, information overload and limited opportunities to participate can unintentionally create barriers for learners.
Train the Trainer: Delivering Inclusive and Accessible Learning equips trainers, facilitators and learning professionals with the knowledge and practical skills to design and deliver learning that is more accessible, inclusive and engaging.
Participants explore the complete learning journey: from course planning and joining instructions through learning materials, communication, activities, participation, reasonable adjustments, evaluation and follow-up.
Combining practical accessibility principles with realistic training scenarios and hands-on delivery techniques, the course helps participants create learning experiences that are accessible, engaging and effective without compromising quality or learning outcomes.
