Whether it's your first accessibility audit or your fiftieth there's a lot of stress and uncertainty involved - but they don't have to be something to be dreaded. Knowledge is power, so this session will give you information on why you or your company may want to have an accessibility audit performed, what an accessibility audit is, what areas it may cover (functionality, content), how the process works and the general timeline to be expected, what you'll receive from your audit team, and lastly how to deal with the results and move forward in a way that improves accessibility now and going forward.

Having recently worked with a variety of clients on accessibility audits, there is a lack of knowledge and an expectations gap of what can be and will be provided during the process of an accessibility audit, and I think it would be beneficial for team members at all levels - leadership certainly, but also the developers, designers and QA analysts who will be receiving the feedback and expected to implement bug fixes and process changes - to attend a session on accessibility audits and take some of the mystery out of the process.
