UX Personas as an Inclusive Design Tool for Accessibility

Personas are fictionalized representations of different types of users that come into contact with your product or service, in this webinar, we will dive into how to create accessibility personas that represent people with disabilities.

Denis Boudreau and Caitlin Geier, two of our UX accessibility experts, will talk about creating personas that you can use to promote inclusive design in your workplace and to design websites and applications which work for a broad variety of people. This is the first part of our new UX and Inclusive Design webinar series.
