About My Accessible Website
Hi, I'm Fiona and I've been a web developer / solutions architect with a passion for accessibility for years.
In my first job as a software engineer, I spent my time making software for schools, which has to meet WCAG Level AA, and I've been advocating for accessibility ever since.
Web accessibility can be really daunting to developers, so my aim with this site is to provide guidance to help developers make their sites more accessible. I just feel that it is a very neglected aspect of software development that has the potential to make so many lives easier.
I also enjoy teaching complex ideas and concepts to others, and accessibility can certainly be complicated at times!
Pluralsight Courses
If you have a Pluralsight subscription, or there's a trial available, I have three highly rated courses on there to explain some beginner to intermediate level concepts.
Accommodating Images and Media for Web Accessibility
Images and audio/video content are some of the trickiest elements of your website to make accessible. This course will teach you how to meet the WCAG accessibility guidelines, including writing video captions and handling dynamic data charts.

Keyboard Navigation and Form Design for Web Accessibility
Input forms come in a variety of shapes and sizes, so they can be tricky to make accessible. This course will teach you how to meet the WCAG accessibility guidelines, including adapting your website to work well for those that use a keyboard alone.
