Using Personas to Shape Accessibility

On Demand
Session Type: Breakout Session
Delivery Format: On-Demand

Having a primary persona with a disability means that disability will never be far from developers' and designers' minds. It saves time and money that would otherwise be spent remediating issues. It makes the solution available to all demographics, aligns with organizational diversity and inclusion values, and minimizes legal risk.
