The CALS external relations web team will talk about web accessibility in WordPress.

Nate Barlow, web developer, will then demonstrate specific tools and options that can help make your WordPress pages more accessible.
Both sessions will cover the same material, so choose the session that works best for you, or feel free to attend both! We look forward to hosting this session to help our CALS website owners and managers learn more about how to make their website content more accessible in WordPress.
