Building a future where accessibility is the foundation of everything we create.
Since 2016, Teach Access has addressed the Accessible Technology Skills Gap, the gap between the demand for accessible products and services and the shortage of recent graduates with digital accessibility skills. Closing this Accessible Technology Skills Gap means equipping the next generation of professionals with essential digital accessibility knowledge. With over 1.3 billion people in the world living with a disability, accessibility is critical for independence and equity. Through strategic partnerships with students, educators, industry, government, and advocacy organizations, Teach Access offers free programs and open educational resources to integrate accessibility education into coursework across various disciplines. In 2020, we set a goal to reach 1 million students by 2030. Five years ahead of schedule, in 2025, we surpassed that goal. We’ve reached more than 1.5 million students, and we’re just getting started.
We have begun scaling our efforts in Europe, Kenya, and Brazil, and have set forth ambitious goals that will help educational institutions send more workforce-ready graduates into rewarding jobs.
As we approach our 10th anniversary in 2026, we aim to raise $1.5 million to celebrate the 1.5 million students we’ve already reached and continue the momentum to reach the next 1.5 million. To support our shared mission of creating a world of “born accessible” technologies, we need your financial help.
