The European Accessibility Act & the US DOJ Notice of Proposed Rule Making - Episode 25

In Europe, the European Accessibility Act’s deadline of June 28 2025 to make websites, apps and digital products from public and private sector organisations compliant with accessibility guidelines is just over a year away.

In the USA, the DOJ NPRM about accessible websites of state and local governments, and Mandate M-24-08 to Strengthen Digital Accessibility and the Management of Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, will have an impact on public sector organisations and SAAS companies and digital agencies who sell services and products to them.

These new legal instruments are having a huge impact on why organisations should invest in accessibility in 2024 and onwards. Yet many organisations are unclear of what they mean. This webinar goes through the legislation to give you an understanding of:

• If the legislation applies to your organisation; and what you need to do by when, if the legislation does apply – this information has been welcomed and discussed with legal teams in many of our clients; and
• Gives pointers on how to plan to efficiently achieve what you need to do before the deadline that applies to your organisation.

This audio was originally recorded as a webinar.
