Date: Tue, Feb 28th, 2023
Time: 2:30 PM - 3:30 PM
Description:
Consumer expectations for digital accessibility continue to rise as technology becomes more integral to our lives. Laws and regulations, like Section 508 and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), protect the rights of individuals in both public and private sectors to have equal opportunities and equal access to information. With almost 2,900 ADA Title III website accessibility lawsuits filed in Federal Court in 2021, organizations that violate these laws risk litigation.
