Accessibility Consulting and Training Services

The Guide for Business on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, promoted by the UN Global Compact and the ILO, states in its preamble that:

“Promoting the rights of people with disabilities and including them in society as managers, employees, suppliers and consumers is a triple win: a win for people with disabilities, a win for business and a win for society at large.”.

Since the birth of Accessible Madrid we wanted to support our growth in this phrase, assuming it as a fundamental part and a guide for our company's decision making.

From our Accessibility Consulting and Training department, our mission is to involve other companies in the necessary accessibility and in the objective of including people with disabilities in the business world and, through it, in society itself.

To this end, we put all our experience at the service of companies through professional consulting and training initiatives, offering our greatest support to organizations, companies and professionals who, like us, understand universal accessibility as a basic objective in the equality and rights of all people.
