Lots of excellent content that certainly made me think about some important issues. I think this speaks highly of the course developers' curation and subject-matter expertise. Some of the quiz questions felt a bit pedantic, but over all, the assessments were fine. My biggest issue was with the delivery platform. Frankly, I found the default discussion tool did not actually facilitate any meaningful discussion. -

The course is quite detailed about all areas related to dealing with Web Accessibility, sometimes it feels a bit text heavy.
The course provides tests, challenges, activities and access to many resources.
There is a companion course for Web Developers about the more technical aspects that I plan on taking. -

Good course and well written with plenty of helpful resources. The only issue was that the course required more time than was stated.
