Free Accessibility Training

The Open University have put a number of short modular courses online, with free access for everyone.

One of them is entitled "Accessibility in interaction design", and it's worth a look if you're learning about this stuff.

The blurb:

"Technology is opening doors for those with disabilities. Being blind or deaf is now far less of a barrier than it was fifty years ago. This unit assesses various disabilities and describes how they might affect a person's use of interactive devices. You will then look at some of the most common assistive technologies and discuss the requirements that each disability group might have for computers, and for other interactive products."

All the text is available to anyone without registration (you can register to get access to discussion forums some tools etc.) and it's been released under Creative Commons Licence.
