Tom Worthington's certificate of completion for the Accessibility Fundamentals course from Intopia, 18 May 2026 |
In support of
Global Accessibility Awareness Day (GAAD), the ANU College of Systems and Society invited staff to compete a short
Intopia Accessibility fundamentals online course. The course has a similar format to the "AI Literacy for All", from Digital Education Council, which I recently completed. But fortunately, the Intopia course is much, much shorter, and has closed captions, as well as transcripts for the short videos. This gives a brief introduction as to why accessibility is important and how to do it.
The Sydney Olympics web accessibility case is mentioned in the course. As it happens I was one of the expert witnesses presenting evidence in the case. Not due to my expertise, but I was free, had a suit, & no conflict of interest. ;-)
The Beijing Olympic committee then invited me over to talk about it.
