Details � � � Most of the times requirements are almost same to every user but in some cases, requirements may be specific. The best approach to find out if someone has specific requirements is to get engage with them and simply ask. To ensure that user engagement goes smoothly, they should be provided comfort and easy access to the venue and activities. And it is important to provide users the complete and clear details of the user engagement program. And while compiling any thing that serves the purpose of the communication, we should follow some protocols so that our words be heard and read by all users, regardless of their age, or disability. And its wise to know your users earliest as possible.
