Building on the knowledge introduced in our shorter course, This is Easy Read, the Foundation Course in Easy Read offers an in-depth exploration of this accessible information format for people with learning disabilities.
This course delves deeper into each aspect of Easy Read, covering advanced topics such as writing techniques, sketching, the effective use of pictures, design principles, co-production methods, and information-sharing strategies.
