Accessible Design Division
Arthritis Australia’s Accessible Design Division works toward educating and providing decision-making tools to industry and government at a design and procurement level, so that the needs and abilities of the broader community are understood. The Division offers several testing services and Certification of products and packaging.
The Division works with Dr Brad Fain who has more than two decades of experience in researching human factors engineering and design, as a Principal Research Scientist at the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) and founder of the Intuitive Design Applied Research Institute. As a world-leading researcher in accessibility, his knowledge and testing methodology guide the Divisions work.
