The Designing Accessible Learning Content Programme
An award-winning, practical programme designed to help learning practitioners create learning content that is accessible, inclusive, and more effective for everyone. Built from real-world experience, the Designing Accessible Learning Content (DALC) Programme helps individuals and teams bridge the gap between accessibility standards and day-to-day learning design.
The DALC Programme – turning accessibility standards into practical action
The DALC Programme was created by Susi Miller to address a challenge we see repeatedly in organisations. Learning teams want to make their content accessible and inclusive, but often need practical guidance, shared ways of working and the confidence to apply accessibility consistently.
Whether you are developing your own practice or building capability across a team, the DALC Programme provides a comprehensive, practical guide to designing, developing, testing and improving accessible and inclusive learning content.
Based on Susi’s bestselling book Designing Accessible Learning Content, her eLearning Accessibility (eLa) Framework and eLaHub’s work with over 150 organisations, the programme brings specialist accessibility and L&D expertise together in one learning experience.
- Designed specifically for learning practitioners who create, commission or test digital learning content.
- Provides comprehensive, learning-focused coverage of WCAG 2.2, with in-depth focus on the requirements most relevant to learning content.
- Tool-agnostic guidance that can be applied across different authoring tools, supported by practical examples, testing activities and downloadable resources.
- Provides organisations with a strategic foundation for applying accessibility consistently at scale and reducing risk across learning content.
- Built on Susi Miller’s specialist expertise, bestselling book and practical eLearning Accessibility (eLa) Framework.
- Flexible delivery through the self-paced DALC Programme Online or expert-led DALC Programme Live, with both options providing access to the full programme and resources.
- 12 months’ access, giving participants time to apply what they learn, revisit content and use the programme as an ongoing reference.

Latest practitioner feedback
Here is some of the latest feedback we've had from learning practitioners taking the DALC Programme. They share what they've valued about the programme and its practical application.
"What really stood out was how the programme consistently translates strategy and theory into practice, encouraging creativity and problem solving and showing how accessibility can be achieved through thoughtful design decisions. It's not often you come across something so well designed, so well thought through, and all to bring about genuine practical improvements. It's genius."
"Goodness. It has been a long while since I have enjoyed a learning programme as much as I have this one. I loved the flexibility of being able to control the pacing at all times."
"The programme is fantastic. Everyone working in our field should complete it. The content is genuinely impressive and thoughtfully structured, making it easy to fit around a busy workload without feeling overwhelming. It made learning a joy and gave me a real sense of achievement."
"I am excited about this certification! The eLaHub DALC Programme is excellent. Now I can design for ALL learners. I say this as a practitioner who has her hands in some form of digital learning each day. Accessible design might be a continuous learning curve, but now I have the tools to help."
"I can’t recommend this programme enough. It’s incredibly practical and structured to provide immediate, hands-on experience with designing accessible learning content. I was using the principles and examples 10 minutes after I started the course.”
"I loved this programme so much - it is beyond fabulous! Even though I knew quite a bit about the topic and have done my own interpretation of the WCAG guidelines for eLearning development, I found out lots of new information that I could practically apply in my work."
