We try to make our webinars accessible to everyone, so that all attendees can get the most out of the sessions.

Designing webinars

When we put together presentations for our webinars, we:

make sure any text is in an accessible font size
follow accessibility guidelines for colour and contrast
use plain English and try to avoid jargon

During the session

So that everyone can get the most out of our sessions we:

deliver webinars at a steady pace
have advisers on hand to answer questions about any of the content being presented
have closed captions switched on
can send out a copy of the webinar script in advance

To prevent sessions being disrupted we:

deliver them in a quiet space with no background noise
have a good quality connection

We record all of our webinar sessions. We send out the recording to attendees so that you can watch it back at your own pace.
