Vaibhav, I have been working in the area of Accessibility for about 10+ years and as per my experience below qualities and knowledge should help someone become an accessibility professional.
1. Understand Web Content Accessibility Guidelines [WCAG] 2.0 ( http://w3.org/TR/WCAG20/ 2. Learn to use automated testing tools like WAVE (http://wave.webaim.org), aXe by Deque (http://deque.com/products/axe 3. Learn use of assistive technologies such as Screen readers. I prefer using NVDA 4. Develop aptitude towardings thinking beyond blindness and disabilities. Accessibility is not just about disabilities. 5. Understand technologies like HTML, CSS, JavaScript 6. Learn and understand ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications). This is important for modern technologies today. 7. Learn to use debugging tools like Firebug etc., 8. Understand developer language; it's important to write a technical report while reporting accessibility bugs. And finally be passionate about accessibility. Also, one needs to understand that accessibility bugs will not get addressed over-night. We need to provide a workable approach to product managers and developers. Hope this helps a bit.
