Digital Design for Accessibility
Not everyone processes visual information in the same way. How do you ensure your message lands when you don’t know the communication preferences or neurodivergent needs of your audience? This session provides an overview of practical tools & global standards to design accessible content, specifically slides. Whether this is for face to face or online communications for staff or clients we cover some basic design principles that will help you boost inclusion and help your audience to access the messages you want to give, whether a sales presentation, staff training or communication session or a client review meeting.

CPD Webinar - Maximising client protection in a softening market
There are significant gaps in most client’s insurance portfolios, and this presentation will explain how these gaps can best be filled.
The softening market provides an ideal opportunity for brokers to maximise client protection, but this can only be achieved by understanding where the coverage gaps usually arise and how solutions to these gaps can best be presented to clients.
This webinar will be presented by Alan Chandler, one of the most respected presenters in the UK, and Alan will take you on a journey on how to make the most of the current soft market conditions.
This webinar will be particularly important for brokers and underwriters but also anyone involved in the claims process will find it useful to see where coverage gaps are occurring.
