Retailers have seen a surge in e-commerce since the start of the coronavirus pandemic, experiencing growth in the past five months that was projected for the next five years. With consumers from all demographics embracing online shopping, pickup and delivery, along with spending more time on social media platforms and mobile devices, the need for your web platforms to be accessible has never been more important. Along with this growing trend in usage of e-commerce platforms, retailers are also experiencing more threats of litigation alleging noncompliance with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) mandates for access. These trends create an environment poised for innovation and inclusion.
In this webinar, the William L. Hudson BVI Workforce Innovation Center (WIC) at Envision, a non-profit organization with expertise in digital accessibility, will provide insight on ways to ensure websites and mobile apps are accessible to everyone, leveraging best practices while meeting ADA related Web Content Accessible Guidelines (WCAG) when advertising online or utilizing online retail platforms. Gain an action plan for making your digital presence both accessible and inclusive for seniors and people with disabilities. You’ll also hear from the team at Bailey’s General Store on Sanibel Island, Fla., about their success in boosting the accessibility of their online grocery shopping platform.
