There is a wealth of digital accessibility training content on the web, available through organizations such as the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI), Web Accessibility in Mind (WebAIM), or Deque University. The Office of Civil Rights (OCR) has also developed a new video series on Digital Access in Education, available through the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) National Network.
The WAI's Introduction to Web Accessibility and their videos on Web Accessibility Perspectives are excellent starting points for people who are new to digital accessibility!
