The course went at a good speed and ensured that everyone could keep up. It covered everything expected and gave lots of useful tips along the way. It had a good mix of listening and interaction activities.
Very helpful refresher on basic accessibility, as well as learning new shortcuts, tabs and style properties. Also found the table of contents useful and how to utilise the Accessibility Checker. Thanks!
The pace was fast at the beginning however I did grasp the concepts when we went into the exercises and demonstrations. It would have been useful at the beginning to experience how JAWS etc works for the user.
I would like to have gone through a complex document such as one of the research documents that we receive with many different kinds of complex errors in it with a view to making it accessible. otherwise the course was excellent
I'd like to work through a complicated document received with incorrect formatting from scratch as that is the real challenge!
I could have done with some practice actually making some documents accessible but other than that I learnt a lot.
The only improvement I would suggest would be more hands-on editing of word documents, rather than just watching the trainer do it. We could even all work on the same documents and follow through the steps, mimicking the trainer. Personally I find that I remember things better if I have done them myself. However this was generally really good, the explanations were clear and the pace was good, so I still learned a lot.
Maybe it would be useful to have a section where we see a screen reader in action.
If the instructors had more of an understanding on screen readers that would be useful. Otherwise excellent I understand how to use word much better.
