Our basic training is intended for anyone who is completely new to what accessibility is about, what guidelines apply, and how accessibility affects you. Our nanotraining is an online course that you can use to motivate and spread basic knowledge on accessibility throughout your entire organisation.

Introduction to accessibility

Are you looking to get a solid introduction to accessibility? Then take this chance to participate in our basic training. We show clear examples of good and bad accessibility, review statistics, tell about political decisions and explain uncommon terms and concepts.

Nanotraining for large organisations

Funka offers short-format interactive training. Spread accessibility-mindedness throughout the entire organisation by using NanoLearning – brief, motivating online lessons in digital accessibility that anyone in the workplace can follow.

Subject-specific training

Intended for anyone who knows the basics and who wants to know more and find out what applies specifically to one’s own professional role as, for example, a developer, editor or designer. Here there are also separate trainings on regulatory requirements, PDF files, apps, plain language, etc.

Publishing & Accessibility

Accessibility is much more than just technology! As a web editor you bear a great responsibility for ensuring that the website is accessible for all users. In order for the content to be readable and structured for users of assistive tools and users with special needs, comprehensive knowledge about accessibility from an editorial perspective is a must.

Design/UX & Accessibility

In this training we look at how UX, design, and accessibility interconnect, what points are touched on in WCAG, as well as the added value of having users with functional impairments participate in use tests.

Development & Accessibility

This training is for anyone who wants to learn more about how to actually achieve accessibility in purely technical terms. According to both regulatory requirements and Funka’s recommendations. We show clear examples of good and bad code, review requirements and explain what works and what doesn’t.

Apps & Accessibility

This training is intended not only for anyone who develops apps, but also for anyone working with UX/Design or testing who wants to learn what actually needs to be done to achieve accessibility in apps for iOS and Android. According to both regulatory requirements and Funka’s recommendations.

Law & Accessibility

This training provides you concrete knowledge of applicable regulations and how your organisation is affected by the Web Accessibility Directive. This training is for anyone who manages, orders, specifies, purchases, develops, procures, publishes, designs, manages projects in, writes or otherwise works with websites, intranets or apps within the public sector. All roles are affected by more stringent requirements on accessibility.

PDF-training courses

PDF & Microsoft PowerPoint

The content of PowerPoint presentations can, for example, consist of text, images, tables, diagrams, links and bullet points. This requires that you can make the content of the presentations accessible to all.
