Best practices for accessible meetings
Best practices for accessible meetings
One person speaks at a time
This helps people who are deaf and hard of hearing to keep track of who is speaking, people who are blind and low vision who can’t see non-verbal cues, and people attending remotely.
Speakers should state their name each time they speak
This helps communication providers, people who are blind or who have low vision, note takers or meeting recordings, and other attendees know who is speaking at all times.
Presenters should describe images and graphics on any slides
This benefits people who are blind or have low vision, as well as people attending remotely.
Call from a quiet location
If joining remotely and providing public comment, ensure you are in a quiet location where there is no background noise.
