Add Accessibility Features To Your Training Games Workshop

Enabling access to your training program for people with impairments, or special needs, through the use of assistive technology. This workshop will teach you how.

The Accessibility module for Game Creator provides many features without the need for additional technology. The components can also be utilized to create additional course features and can be used with existing games already created in Unity.

This new 6-Hour Workshop will focus on how to implement accessibility features into a serious game or training program through the User Interface. All participants will receive a workbook detailing examples. Many of these features improve the training for all participants, not just those with disabilities.

Note: Participants will gain the most from this Workshop if they have taken the Learn to Make Serious Games without Learning Code also offered by Serious Play Academy. If not, we strongly recommend the 3 hour condensed Bootcamp on Saturday, Dec. 5.

Learning outcomes for the Accessibility Workshop:

Knowledge and use of Game Creator UI and associated Elements
Adding Accessibility controls to the game UI
Creating interactive Menus and configurable UI controls
Creating and animating popup messages and notifications
Adding in-game sound with closed captions
Configuring player controls for special needs

Additional resources will be supplied to participants after enrolment. A Certificate of Completion will be presented at the end of the course.
