Mission Impossible - Accessibility Job Roles
Mission Impossible - Accessibility Job Roles
By @craigabbott@a11y.info
When it comes to running a workshop, 30 people is a large group. So, let's imagine you somehow managed to cram all of the material into a single half-day workshop, and you run it with large groups of 30 people, twice per day, 7 days per week. To get through our low-balled figure of 600 people, it would still be 9 months! That's 3 months more than you'll likely be employed for, and that's not including any coordination, scheduling, prep-time, write-up time, iteration time or specific actions that come from the workshops themselves.

ARIA roles are one half of the predefined categories of attributes used to describe elements that may not exist natively in browsers or may not be understood by screen readers and other assistive technologies.
