As your partner in accessibility, we know that there are many facets of your website that you are responsible for making accessible to people using assistive technology. 

This training will teach you how to make your PowerPoint presentations accessible. The guidance in this document is based on WCAG guidelines. We feel it is important to note that we are showing you recommended ways to meet these guidelines. In many cases, there are a variety of alternative ways to meet these guidelines that are not included in this training.   

We cover the following accessibility-related topics in your PowerPoint presentation:

  • Texts & fonts
  • Charts & graphs, patterns, tables, and labels
  • Slide titles
  • Lists
  • Hyperlinks
  • Color contrast
  • Alt text for images
  • Tables 
  • Meta descriptions
