The Building Inclusive Learning Technologies series helps you design EdTech products that more learners can access, use, trust, and benefit from. The series frames inclusion, accessibility, and usability testing as practical product design capabilities rather than separate compliance or theory topics.

• Inclusive EdTech for Diverse Learners
• Principles of Accessibility for EdTech Design
• Usability Testing for Learner-Centered EdTech (coming in Q3 2026)

The courses move from understanding inclusion, to applying accessibility standards and practices, to testing real product experiences with users. Together, they support you to build learning technologies that are more relevant, usable, safe, accessible, and responsive to learner diversity.
