Accessibility Testing with NVDA

About the Webinar

A key part of building accessible websites is using screen readers to test for problems. Whether you’re a developer or content creator, getting started with a screen reader doesn’t have to feel overwhelming!

In this two-hour educational webinar, attendees will learn how to use the NVDA screen reader, a free open-source screen reader for Windows computers, to identify if a website has accessibility problems.

Instruction will cover the following:

• NVDA settings and recommended configuration
• Helpful keyboard shortcuts
• How to use NVDA to navigate a web page
• Using NVDA to find accessibility problems

There will be a 1-hour and 45-minute presentation followed by time for Q&A at the end.

Who is this webinar for?

This webinar is intended for website designers, developers, content creators, agency owners, and anyone who is interested in learning how to use NVDA. No prior technical skills or accessibility knowledge is required.

Please note: NVDA only works on Windows computers. If you have a Mac computer, we recommend attending the Accessibility Testing with VoiceOver webinar instead.
