About this learning path

Accessibility is no longer a niche requirement. It is a mainstream expectation that shapes how organizations reach customers, communicate clearly, and deliver content at scale. In this learning path, you will see how inclusive content improves consistency, strengthens quality, and elevates customer experience across every channel. You will explore what accessibility looks like across common content formats and how AI can accelerate time‑intensive tasks such as generating alt text, creating captions and transcripts, and rewriting content in plain language. You will also learn how these capabilities come together with Azure OpenAI to support a secure and governed approach. This approach keeps people in control while enabling teams to produce inclusive, high‑quality content with confidence.
