The overall objective of the project is to enhance the concept of Digital Accessibility in order to change the mind-set of traditional ICT users so everybody can contribute to common files accessibility.
The meeting has started with a report offered by the coordinator UAH on status of project progress. After a review of IO2 results, has been presented the progress on “Curriculum development and courses” and “Awareness campaign development and dissemination”.
These meeting opportunities are very functional to improve communication between partners, clarifying some aspects that can be better dealt in face-to-face meetings.
Moreover e general review of technical aspects as project management, quality evaluation, budget, reporting and documentation has been offered to monitor all management issues.
One of the main actions to be still implemented is the Pilot course on digital accessibility directed to Public employees and managers, VET and Higher Education teachers and managers, Employees and managers of SMEs. An important requirement of these target groups is to be inexperienced in ICT.
