When we talk about software quality and digital products, accessibility is often overlooked or passed from one role to another — until it becomes difficult and costly to address. But accessibility is not a single person's responsibility. It's a shared effort that improves quality, usability, and inclusivity for everyone.
During this webinar, we'll take a practical, high-level look at accessibility in IT projects — what it is, why it matters, and how everyone involved in building and testing software can contribute to making products more accessible.
What we'll cover:
- What accessibility is and why it matters
- Accessibility as a quality indicator in IT projects
- When and how to start working on accessibility
- Where accessibility fits in building and testing products
- Shared responsibility across different roles in IT
- How to talk about accessibility in teams and include it in daily work
- Q&A session and discussion
This session is designed for anyone involved in building digital products — developers, testers, designers, product managers, and anyone interested in improving software quality and inclusivity.
📅 date: April 2, 2026
⏰ time: 18:00 (CET)
