Watch the video below on how to make your powerpoint presentations more accessible.

Download the DClin PowerPoint template (powerpoint file) We have created a standard powerpoint template to ensure accessibility for our trainees.  To convert an existing powerpoint into this format: open your existing powerpoint presentation that needs changing. Go to Design tab > Browse for Themes. Browse to the location where you have saved this template. Once imported, make any formatting amendments as required. Please remember to amend other accessibility issues e.g. Alt text to images, create tables and not screenshots of tables etc. See the guidance above for more information.
