WCAG explained: Your foundation for digital accessibility

New to web accessibility standards? In this video, Jeremy walks you through the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG)—the technical specification behind every accessibility requirement you'll encounter in a brief, a bug report, or a legal conversation.

You'll learn how WCAG organizes requirements around four core principles—perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust (POUR)—and what each one means for your day-to-day work as a developer or designer.

By the end, you'll have a working framework for approaching accessibility issues, a shared vocabulary for team conversations, and a clear entry point into WCAG success criteria and conformance levels.
What's covered:

What WCAG is and why it matters:
-The four POUR principles and how they show up in real work
-How success criteria are structured (and how to test them)
-WCAG versions and conformance levels (2.1 vs. 2.2, Level AA)

Whether you've just landed your first accessibility audit or heard "it doesn't work with a screen reader" for the first time, this video gives you the foundation to move forward with confidence.
