Consultancy

AbilityNet offers consultancy on any aspect of accessible IT including corporate policy development, training, workstation set up, software audits and website accessibility.

Every organisation is different and whether you know what you want or aren’t sure, the best place to start is by contacting our Advice and Information service. They will arrange for a senior consultant to get in touch.

We have worked with employers to evaluate the "accessibility" of their IT strategy and applications, present and future, highlighting areas of potential and flexibility as well as identifying problem areas.

We give guidance, from our own experience and that of colleagues around the world, on how to build in full access rather than design it out.

We help employers select and understand a set of alternative access devices and software that can be held and tested in advance to ensure that systems can accommodate the "special needs" that are most frequently encountered.

Tailored seminars and courses

Any of the courses outlined in the Courses and Events section can be tailored and delivered as an in-house seminar. To discuss this contact courses@abilitynet.org.uk.

"A third of our staff have attended AbilityNet training and now have the knowledge and self assurance to help with access problems." Desmond Heaps, Principal Librarian, Warwickshire
