eLearning Course: “Creating Accessible Document Structure in Microsoft Word 2003”

Course ID: #C508-05

Course Overview:

Three sample screenshots from the �Creating Accessible Document Structure� course. The screen shots are titled �Fundamentals of Accessibility Auditing,� �Considerations Beyond Assisstive Technologies� and �Preparing for the Audit.�

This course explains and provides step by step instructions on how to create more accessible Microsoft Word 2003 documents. The principles of creating a logical document structure can be transferred to other applications and document design. By creating more accessible “source documents” there are fewer repairs when these documents are repurposed to tagged PDF. Creating more accessible Word documents also lets people using adaptive technology navigate them more efficiently and effectively.

Audience

Students taking this course should have access to and a solid understanding of Microsoft Word 2003. This course is not intended to teach documentation professionals how to use Microsoft Word 2003, but rather only how to create accessible document structure using Microsoft Word 2003.
