Leveling-up your Digital Accessibility in MS Office

Tags: ,

After consulting with a number of faculty, there are a few tips and tricks that keep surfacing as potential game-changers for our users. This workshop is intended to be a sampling of intermediate-level tricks like: how to lock MS Word documents so they are not editable, changing the visual styles of the default headers in MS Word to create a template for styles to always look the way you want while also achieving digital accessibility, and how to make template slides in PowerPoint.
