Prefer the specific to the general, the definite to the vague, the concrete to the abstract.

Universal Design vs Inclusive Design - TPGi

Repeat after me… You do not need the word ‘Accessibility’ to be in your job title… it should already be part of your every day role!
My advice is not to look at how you become an Accessibility Specialist but to look at how you can incorporate accessibility into your existing role.
