Why Choose Train 11?
Education & government websites are unique and demand a specialized approach. Schools need to manage state and federal required postings, financial transparency documents, lunch menus, classroom assignments, registration forms, student handbooks, course guides, supply lists, calendars, and more. Governments must post election notices, codes and ordinances, policies, legal documents, meeting minutes, forms, and more.
I am not just a “professional trainer” assigned to teach an accessibility course. As a former school district webmaster, I have navigated the OCR Complaint process, created an accessibility policy, trained district staff, and rebuilt a district website from the ground up. I understand the auditing and testing required to ensure all your digital resources remain fully accessible.
When web accessibility first became a priority, finding quality training material was incredibly frustrating. Resources specifically tailored for school districts were scarce. I attended various online and in-person accessibility trainings and conferences, but they only provided a general understanding. I spent countless hours searching through Google and YouTube to find the specific information I needed. Over the years, I’ve built a comprehensive repository of data and information that is continually updated and verified.
I started Train 11 with the goal of helping other school district webmasters find the resources and information they need to bring their sites into compliance. My mission is also to foster a culture of accessibility within our school districts. Join us and journey from mystery to mastery through our free video trainings and in-depth live training sessions.
