What is an accessibility testing internship?

An Accessibility Testing Internship is a temporary position, typically for students or recent graduates, that focuses on evaluating digital products—such as websites and mobile apps—for accessibility. The goal is to ensure these products are usable by people with disabilities, following standards like the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). Interns learn how to use assistive technologies, identify accessibility barriers, and recommend improvements. This role helps organizations create more inclusive digital experiences and gives interns valuable skills in web development and usability testing.
