the digital surf for accessibility
With more than 30 years of experience in creating assistive technology for people who are blind or visually impaired, the dSurf mission is to share this knowledge with others. The dSurf platform aims to provide free training, educational blog posts, and open discussions for those who want to know more about accessibility development.
As a digital accessibility consultant, dSurf invites assistive technology providers, educators, and testers to share their insight and knowledge through webinars, meetings, and interactive sessions.
At dSurf, we’re proud to pull together three decades worth of experience in the accessibility technology field to provide you with first-hand insights into the world of digital accessibility.
We offer assessments of assistive technology compliance for your organization. It’s important to consider the user’s abilities, needs, and tasks to be completed while creating these assistive technology assessments.
dSurf begins the process by asking the right questions and understanding the desired outcomes for the assistive technology used. Your report includes a range of tests using various software accessibility testing tools. As your digital accessibility specialist, we work collaboratively to assess whether your assistive technology and workplace is fully equipped to handle the task and empower your associates, students, and anyone else who is visually impaired.
By providing JAWS® software training materials you can rest assured all aspects of your learning journey are covered. Join fellow JAWS enthusiasts and specialists as we discuss and learn from each other's development journeys via live webinars, meetings, and training materials provided by dSurf.
Our website accessibility consultants are focused on providing training for anyone interested in exploring the field of accessibility. Keep an eye on the dSurf blog for free accessibility training posts and insights into the world of accessibility development. dSurf offers one-on-one and group training sessions for end-users, educators, and developers wanting to learn more or collaborate on a project.
Our accessibility consultants have years of experience in the accessibility field, adding value to almost any low vision assistive technology devices and systems. We have first-hand experience working with people who are blind or visually impaired and know what challenges they face in the workplace and throughout their studies. Furthermore, we use a series of functional tests that automated testing systems miss.
Whether you are creating content for students who are visually impaired, creating accessible documentation and web sites, or simply want to know more about ADA compliance and Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, dSurf assists you along the way.
With the rise of the Internet and computers over the past two decades it has become crucial for websites, systems, and mobile devices to be accessible to people who are blind or visually impaired. The digital accessibility field is what makes it all possible. We help you learn to use tools such as JAWS screen reading software, ZoomText® screen magnification software, Fusion® (a combination of JAWS and ZoomText), NVDA screen reading software, and Windows® Narrator and Magnifier, to name a few. These tools help break down the barriers that people who are blind or visually impaired face in the workforce and in education.
Digital accessibility increases the number of people with disabilities in the workforce, ultimately leading them to earn competitive salaries and gain self-confidence. The same goes for students who are now able to complete courses and earn degrees. Digital accessibility has increased the possibilities for people with disabilities over the years and continues to evolve. Let our digital accessibility consultants keep you ahead of the learning curve.
