Join us as we welcome special guests Katie Fielding and Crystal Trapani to discuss accessibility and how coaches can integrate it into their work. Katie and Crystal share their personal journeys to accessibility advocacy. They offer tips for making materials more accessible through simple changes like font selection, alt text for images, and leveraging closed captions. Other highlights include modeling inclusive practices, starting small when working with teachers, empowering others, and vulnerability. Katie and Crystal emphasize that accessibility benefits everyone. They encourage coaches to survey their staff on accessibility needs, focus on andragogy for adult learners, and make sure their own materials are accessible. Tune in for an insightful discussion on becoming an accessibility advocate as a coach.
