Since 1998, Knowbility has helped hundreds on non-profit and arts related organizations build websites that help them fulfill their missions and reach their consultancies. We have trained over 1000 web developers and students in the principles and importance of accessible web design. Skills that they have used not only to create sites for AIR competitions but to build commercial, governmental, and educational web sites that can be used successfully by everyone. We provide training in assistive technology selection and use for educators, administrators and other professional in K-12 schools to ensure that students with special needs get the assistive technologies that they require to maximize their potential. And we facilitate the delivery of refurbished computers to children and adults with disabilities.
