Dear WAI Interest Group Participants,

The W3C WAI Education and Outreach Working Group (EOWG) has updated:
How to Make Presentations Accessible to All at
http://www.w3.org/WAI/training/accessible

This resource helps you make presentations, talks, meetings, training, conferences, etc. accessible to all of your potential audience, including people with disabilities and others. It covers planning, preparing slides, considerations during your presentation, providing accessible material, and more. It also mentions additional benefits of inclusive presentations, for example, improving podcasts of presentations for everyone.

*We welcome your help telling presenters, trainers, conference organizers, and others about How to Make Presentations Accessible to All*. Sample wording that you can use for your own blog posts, newsletter articles, etc. is available in a Promoting Make Presentations Accessible wiki page at
http://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/wiki/Promoting_Make_Presentations_Accessible . (If you post or publish about it, please let us know by sending e-mail to wai-eo-editors@w3.org  so we can add it to our list.)

We also welcome comments on how we might improve this resource in future versions. You can comment on this blog post or send e-mail to the publicly archived list wai-eo-editors@w3.org
