Axess Lab Academy

Online courses in digital accessibility.

We get it!

Axess Lab is Sweden’s leading expert in digital accessibility, specializing in this field since 2013. We do loads of real time educations, workshops and courses for our clients. And we strongly recommend meeting real users, and real teachers to discuss accessibility on-site or via video conference. But we hear you – there are some situations where it just isn’t perfect:

  1. If you have a small tech team (1-5) it makes the price per person high.
  2. Replacing employees over time means the educations need to be repeated.
  3. Large organizations wanting to upskill 100-1000 employees fast, where live-educations take too long to plan and execute.

Solution: Axess Lab Academy!

Is the platform 100% accessible?

No, while researching platforms, we found no fully accessible LMS platforms that met our needs. But we are working hard with the platform owners to improve their accessibility over time! If you find anything blocking you from access – let us know and we will tell them to fix it ASAP, and refund any courses you cannot access! We are really trying hard to improve the platform – but we didn’t want to wait with sharing knowledge to the world until it is perfect. We are sorry for this, and hope you understand :/
