Unified In-Service 2026

Presenters: Brian Brandenburg and Nicole Lindsay

Description of Presentation: We’ll explore how to find and use templates as a starting point, navigate Canva’s wide range of design options, and customize templates to make them truly your own. Participants will learn how to personalize colors, fonts, images, graphics, layouts, and other elements to create designs that reflect their organization, audience, and message. We'll also cover Canva's accessibility features for creating usable documents, PDFs, and HTML content, including reading order, alt text, and text semantics. Hands-on practice with the built-in accessibility checker will help you catch and fix common issues (illogical content order, missing image descriptions, mismatched heading levels) ahead of the federal government's April 26, 2027 compliance deadline.
