Accessible Writing


Description
Whether you're writing an external press release, grant proposal, or social media post, or an internal email, Slack, GGR, or deck, you need to write it in an accessible way. That means using plain language and writing at an 8th-grade reading level. This training covers what accessible writing is, how to measure it, strategies you can use to help you write accessibly, and before and after examples.

It also includes links to additional resources to help you write accessibly.
