The DDA - Disability Discrimination Act

If you are a UK based company, either managing your own web site, or, you are a web design company designing for clients then you have an obligation to meet the DDA specifications.

It is your responsibility to ensure that every reasonable effort has been made to make your websites accessible.

The two courses out-lined below are designed to enable you to meet the requirements of the DDA while implementing standards based code. It is worth bearing in mind that websites built with standards compliant code are not necessarily accessible, but a website that does not use standards compliant code will not be accessible.
