In June of 2020, I attended the Advanced Creating Accessible Documents: Adobe PDF training hosted by Vision Australia. With the main takeaways I learnt from the course, I delivered 4 training sessions within the EY internal design & development groups in the mid of July, to advocate the accessibility awareness in the practice of building digital content and applications and aiming for “Design & build to be accessible”.

Context
