Australia’s 2026 Accessibility Updates: What Digital Leaders Need to Do Now
The live webinar has concluded. The recording is now available.
Join us for a focused discussion on understanding and responding to Australia's 2026 accessibility updates. As Australia places a stronger emphasis on inclusive digital experiences and complex conformance testing across multiple standards, such as WCAG 2.2 and European Standard EN 301 549, leaders are navigating critical questions: How do we adapt our testing methodologies? Where do the legal and procurement risks actually sit? And how do we move forward without disrupting existing development cycles?
In this session, we will break down the 2026 accessibility expectations in simple terms.
What you will learn:
-
Understand what Australia's 2026 accessibility updates mean in practice and align with WCAG 2.2 Level AA and EN 301 549.
-
Extend accessibility beyond websites to include mobile apps, software as a service (SaaS) platforms, PDFs, and internal enterprise tools.
-
Embed accessibility into your existing design, development, and quality assurance (QA) workflows.
-
Governance, audit readiness, and managing legal and procurement risk.
-
The ROI of accessibility: How shifting left helps you achieve conformance faster, cheaper, and with minimal disruption.
