Webinar: Accessible Data Visualization: Addressing Barriers and Implementing Section 508 Solutions

Tuesday May 24 2022, 12:00 PM - Tuesday May 24 2022, 1:30 PM

In the Digital Age, data visualizations have become more commonly developed to represent large data sets through graphics, charts, and other visuals. Federal agencies have used them to show patterns, trends, and outliers of data to inform members of the public, policy makers, and first-responders. The next webinar in the Section 508 Best Practices Webinar Series will take place May 24 from 12:00 to 1:30 p.m. (CT) and introduce the concept, development, tools, and benefits of data visualizations, including making them accessible. Presenters from the U.S. Department of Education, the Center for Disease Control, and the U.S. Census will discuss how their respective agencies use data visualizations to meet their missions. Presenters will also review some barriers, solutions, and implications to making accessible data visualizations. This session is intended for entry-level to intermediate audiences, but all are welcome to join.
