International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards (IBCCES) unveils Accessibility App at AccessAbilities Expo 2024 🌍✨
At the AccessAbilities Expo 2024, the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards (IBCCES) announced the launch of a groundbreaking accessibility app designed to improve the quality of life of individuals with disabilities. The app connects the people using it with accessible businesses and public locations to empower them, help them navigate their environment and to help eliminate the barriers often faced.
As said earlier, the app offers directory to accessible businesses, including Certified Autism Centers™ (CACs), and provides users with reliable, easy-to-access information. The app is not limited to Autism but one section highlights all of the Certified Autism Centers™ (CACs) which are a part of Dubai’s broader effort to become the first Certified Autism Destination™ in the region. This aligns with Dubai’s Department of Economy and Tourism (DET) initiative, which seeks to make the city a global leader in accessible and inclusive tourism.
The app offers businesses and people several opportunities. Indeed, by using this app, businesses can help potential customers understand accommodations provided at each location or demonstrate their commitment to inclusivity by advertising job openings specifically for people with disabilities. As for the users, they can find local businesses that cater to their needs, discover travel experiences that are certified to welcome visitors with autism or individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing and so much more.
