UNI 11621-3 – Web Accessibility Expert
Certification exam preparation course
The Web Accessibility Expert preparation course is the official training path for the certification exam under the UNI 11621-3 scheme, the reference professional profile for those who implement and verify digital accessibility.
Digital accessibility is no longer optional: regulatory developments at European and national level have progressively extended compliance obligations to all digital tools, making the Web Accessibility Expert role increasingly strategic in both the public and private sectors.
The course was developed by IWA Italia and covers the reference regulations and standards, including WCAG and EN 301 549, with hands-on activities on content, design and development (WAI-ARIA), through to accessibility testing and reporting.
The content of this course is generated with the support of artificial intelligence systems, based on original teaching material prepared by qualified instructors.
