Is your team carrying any of these warnings?

This program is designed to fix them, one by one.

  • The European Accessibility Act already applies, and you don’t know whether your app complies.
  • Nobody on the team has tried the app with VoiceOver.
  • Turn on large text and the interface breaks.
  • Accessibility always ends up as “we’ll do it later.”

Is it right for your team?

If it isn’t a fit, we’ll say so in the assessment and suggest something else.

Yes, if…

  • Companies subject to the EAA (banking, transport, e-commerce, services)
  • Teams that need to pass an audit
  • Teams that want an in-house accessibility lead

No, if…

  • Anyone looking for a certificate without changing the code

What your team will be able to do

  • Understand what the EAA requires of an app, and how to verify it
  • Implement VoiceOver, Voice Control and Switch Control support
  • Build interfaces that hold up at every text size
  • Create accessible custom controls
  • Automate accessibility audits with UI Tests
  • Prepare your App Store accessibility labels

How we do it

We start with an assessment and tailor each session to what your team is building.

  1. assessment

    We get to know your team

    A conversation with whoever leads the team and, if needed, a review of your code and your processes.

  2. proposal

    We propose a plan

    Curriculum, schedule, format and budget, in writing. And, if you need it, who can handle FUNDAE for you.

  3. training

    We train on real work

    Live classes with examples from your domain, exercises and access to recordings.

  4. certification

    We certify

    We assess what was learned on a real case, and each person receives a certificate of achievement.

  5. follow-up

    We measure and stay with you

    A progress report, a review session with the team and support for questions afterwards.

What your team gets

  1. Course materials and all sample code, for your team’s internal use
  2. A recording of every session (remote or hybrid format)
  3. A group progress report with recommended next steps

Questions you ask us

The questions we hear most, already answered. If yours isn’t here, we’ll answer it in the conversation.

Does it guarantee legal compliance?

Legal responsibility lies with each company. We give you the knowledge and a prioritized remediation plan for your app.

Is it eligible for FUNDAE funding?

Yes, we’re an accredited provider. Your company handles the application, with its own team or its usual advisers. If you have no one to do it, we’ll put you in touch with the partner we work with, who takes care of everything. (FUNDAE is Spain’s training credit system.)

Can we work on our own code?

Yes, under an NDA. The examples come from your own domain, so what the team learns shows up in their work the next day.
