Making Digital Services More Accessible

This event qualifies for 1 CPEs

Digital services have the power to transform how people interact with government agencies. For example, instead of waiting in an hour-long line to update your driver’s license you could renew online.

However, for digital services to be truly revolutionary they must be accessible to everyone. Accessibility can take many forms; it can mean providing tools to aid those with disabilities, using inclusive language to not alienate populations and it can also mean making sure that broadband access is available for customers.

Join us online Wednesday, Jan. 31, from 2-2:50 p.m. ET/11-11:50 a.m. PT to hear from government and industry leaders about their strategies for making digital services accessible.
