Do I need to worry about accessibility if none of my students need accommodations?

There are a few reasons why accessibility experts recommend thinking about accessibility issues ahead of time.

  1. It’s typically less stressful to accessify content over a period of time rather than everything at the last minute. Many fixes are quickly implemented once the skills are learned.
  2. Most accommodations benefit multiple audiences and enhance online content usability. For instance, clarifying the destination of a link benefits all students.
