Thank you so much for sharing this! I’ve been looking for resources like this to find out more about inclusive design and accessibility. What resource would you recommend to learn more about the inclusive design for a CS student?

Similar to what github and adobe are doing. Anything that can show students as an opportunity to help their resume for future job applications would be a huge plus! Especially since ur org. has industry reputation. I don’t see why students wouldn’t want a try. Plz dm me to chat

@w3c_wai Thank you so much for reaching out! This looks great. I have flexible time for the next few weeks. How can I participate?

One idea I can suggest right off the bet would be making the certificate more accessible by creating an option to get the certificate for free after done. 99$ for students esp. low income is a lot. Check out how EdX Harvard CS50 course is doing.
Replying to @w3c_wai
If students show proof of course work done thru edx, the harvard cs 50 site hands out certificate for free directly from their site rather than having to pay thru edx. Another idea is recruiting a student ambassador @w3c_wai for raising awareness of web accessibility on campus
