The Empathy Lab Experience is a hands-on workshop that simulates the effects of on-line and physical barriers for people with disabilities. Through the use of interactive devices, you will be able to feel, understand and act on the crucial need to remove these barriers from your customers' experience.
Ideally suited to product managers, designers and business owners, by attending the Empathy Lab you will:
- Gain a deeper understanding of digital accessibility and why it matters to your business and customers
- Learn how people with disabilities navigate websites and apps using different types of assistive technology
- Discover how to write and design with accessibility in mind, following best practice and guidance
- Have a unique learning experience that will challenge your assumptions and perspective
