Leveraging Apple Accessibility Tools
Have you wondered about the built-in settings in your Apple devices, and how they can help the people you work with? This two-part workshop will provide an overview of iPad and iPhone accessibility settings and their potential suitability for people OTs may work with, including people with literacy, cognitive, vision and physical impairments. The workshop will be applied, relating the information to typical user scenarios. Live and video demonstrations will help you understand how the settings are used, and you will be guided through basic setup and customisation options. You will have the opportunity to practise along with your own device. Resources will be provided for further information and detail.

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING
Thank you for running this webinar! Bronwyn gave a great overview of lots of different options that I didn't know existed. It was great to have access to the recording - I needed to go back and watch some of the sections a few times with device in front of me to be able to "get" it.
Fantastic Presentation, very well organised, plenty of opportunity for interaction and practise
