More than half a year ago, I announced that I wanted to go from being A11y-minded to being an A11y expert.

How I want to get from a11y minded to a11y expert
Julia 👩🏻💻 ・ May 14 ・ 2 min read
I think it's time for an update.
From my listed points in the above article,
- I have successfully passed the UX design certification
- I have successfully passed the IAAP Certified Professionals in Accessibility Core Competencies (CPACC)
- I have published many articles about accessibility
- I created a learning website called YurisCodingClub to help developers get into accessibility
- I created my own organization YurisCodingClub on GitHub to encourage contributors to get more involved with accessibility
- I created my own organization called Accessibility First to spread the word about accessibility on various platforms (found on LinkedIn and Instagram)
Although I am still far from being an expert, I think I have managed to become known for my accessibility skills ☺️.
My next steps (or first steps for 2023) are to prepare for the ADS (Accessibile Document Specialist) exam and learn sign language in an intensive three-week weekday course in February.
Thanks for your reading and time. I really appreciate it!
