For Design Teams

Accessibility Training for Product Designers.

Move beyond basic compliance checklists. Equip your design team with the practical skills to create inclusive, accessible experiences from the first wireframe — without slowing down your release cycle.

Why Shift Left on Accessibility

Stop Designing Accessibility Debt. Start Designing Inclusion.

67% of accessibility issues originate in design decisions. When colour contrast, touch targets, and navigation patterns aren't considered early, developers inherit problems they can't easily fix in code.

Retrofitting accessibility after handoff is expensive, delays launches, and often results in compromised experiences. Your designers have the power to prevent this — they just need the right skills.

We train your design team to identify and solve accessibility barriers during the design phase, where changes cost minutes, not sprints. From WCAG-compliant colour systems to annotated handoff specs, we cover what designers actually need to know.

Flexible Delivery

Training That Fits Your Design Sprints.

Forget generic, pre-recorded modules that don't apply to your design tools. We offer flexible, live training designed to fit around your team's schedule.

Lunch & Learn Series

High-impact, 45-minute sessions on specific topics (e.g., "Contrast in Dark Mode"). Perfect for continuous learning without blocking a sprint.

Deep-Dive Workshops (Half/Full Day)

Immersive sessions with hands-on exercises using your actual design files. Your team leaves with improved components, not just notes.

Design Reviews & Pairing

We review your current designs and pair with designers to solve real accessibility challenges on live projects.

Remote Live Webinars

Remote-first sessions optimised for distributed teams. Interactive exercises, live polling, and screen sharing — never passive watching.

Who It's For

Tailored Content for Every Design Role.

Accessibility isn't just a specialist skill. We tailor content to match what each role actually needs to know to ship inclusive products — no filler, no overlap.

UX Designers

Master inclusive user flows, accessible forms, error handling, and navigation patterns that work for everyone.

UI Designers

Learn colour systems, typography scales, focus states, and touch targets that meet WCAG without compromising aesthetics.

Product Designers

Understand the full picture — from research personas to handoff annotations — and advocate for accessibility in product decisions.

Design System Teams

Build accessible foundations. Create component guidelines, token systems, and documentation that scale accessibility across products.
