(To those who constantly post politics or who are serious activists. I don't mind your following me or commenting on my posts, but I cannot follow you. Barring a few very specific issues, I try to keep my life, and my timeline, as free from politics and drama as possible. I don't follow world affairs in most cases either. I will also not follow you if you hardly post in English, because I won't be able to understand most of your posts.)
Hello. Georgiana Brummell is not my legal name, but it is what I prefer to be called. I chose it in honour of Beau Brummell. Some of my interests include studying dandyism, nineteenth-century grammar, Received Pronunciation, British history, and the Regency. I like coffee, tea, wine, nasal snuff, cooking, hot baths, reading British literature, watching nature and historical documentaries, gardening, hot weather, and playing cards and dice. I also love cats. In classical music, I enjoy Baroque through a bit of early Romantic, while in popular, I usually prefer 1950's through 1970's. I love theatre, mostly English and Viennese operettas, Edwardian musical comedies), and some Regency/Georgian plays. I am a huge Ivor Novello fan. I prefer antique menswear and accessories (no feminine clothing). It's my dream to either buy a genuine Edwardian suit or have one commissioned. I love wit, wordplay, and dry humour without vulgarity. My parents are lesbians, and I am a huge gay rights supporter. I am happily childfree, and speak my mind. I have been totally blind since I was two months old, due to Retinopathy of Prematurity. I am also single and searching. If you are or know a genuine dandy, or at least, a single, childfree, intelligent, well-dressed man, preferably over sixty, please tell him about me. You can also find me on Dreamwidth

Can anyone recommend an accessible course to learn html? It must work with NVDA. I've heard of Code Camp and W3Schools, but how accessible are they and how do they differ in content and style? I like courses with a structured approach, where things are explained i.e. a deductive and not an inductive approach. I usually don't need a tutorial, but I am fine with general instructions. In this case, though, exercises would be very beneficial. I am using this prior to beginning Part 2 of the Web Developer's course at Deque. I am not a developer, but they don't have one for accessibility testers.

I'll be interested to see what others suggest. I know companies such as Intopia offer training courses: intopia.digital/services/acces…

WebAIM is another one: webaim.org/services/training/

Give your team the skills to tackle accessibility and inclusion with confidence.

@NV Access Thank you. These are excellent suggestions, especially the first one, as they have courses directly related to accessibility testing, working with NVDA (which I've done for many years, anyway), etc. But for right now, I'm seeking an accessible course in html itself.
