What We'll Cover

A lot has happened in the digital accessibility legal space this year –
have you kept up? Most recently, a new digital accessibility law was
introduced in the United States Congress. If the law passes as written, it
will result in digital accessibility regulations for both websites and
software applications. Commercial providers who design, develop, and modify
certain websites or applications are part of the proposed legislation.

The introduction of a U.S. accessibility law is just one of many
accessibility legal developments in 2022. Others? The Department of Justice
announced its intention to write web regulations for state and local
governments. The DOJ and the EEOC issued important guidance about how to
avoid disability discrimination when using Artificial Intelligence hiring
tools. The United States Access Board is talking about kiosk accessibility
regulations. And of course, there were new lawsuits, court orders,
settlements, other government activities, and Structured Negotiations.

Learning Objectives:

   - Legal requirements impacting digital accessibility (primarily in the
   US, touching upon international requirements).
   - Updates on major digital access court cases, laws, regulations, and
   settlements over the
   past twelve months.
   - Best practices for digital accessibility to stay ahead of the legal
   curve as defined by
   industry leaders, court orders, and major settlements.
   -  Ethics in the digital accessibility legal space (centering disabled
   people and avoiding fear,
   quick fixes, and shortcuts).
