Accessibility Service

We are experts in W3C accessibility, also known as Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), possesses specialized knowledge and skills to ensure that websites and digital content are accessible to all users, including those with disabilities. Here are the key areas of expertise such a person would have:

Understanding WCAG Guidelines: We have a deep understanding of the WCAG guidelines, which provide a set of recommendations for making web content more accessible to people with disabilities. We're familiar with the principles, guidelines, and success criteria outlined in WCAG 2.0 and WCAG 2.1.
Accessibility Audits and Evaluations: We can conduct comprehensive accessibility audits and evaluations of websites to identify barriers and issues that may prevent users with disabilities from accessing and using the content. This involves manual testing, automated testing using accessibility evaluation tools, and assistive technology testing.
Accessible Design and Development Practices: We're knowledgeable about accessible design and development practices, including semantic HTML markup, proper use of ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) roles and attributes, keyboard navigation, focus management, and ensuring compatibility with assistive technologies such as screen readers and voice recognition software.
Assistive Technology Awareness: We understand how people with disabilities use assistive technologies such as screen readers, magnifiers, voice recognition software, and alternative input devices to access and interact with digital content. This awareness helps us design and develop websites that are compatible with a wide range of assistive technologies.
Accessible Multimedia and Interactive Content: We know how to make multimedia content (such as videos, audio files, and animations) and interactive components (such as forms, sliders, and carousels) accessible to users with disabilities. This includes providing text alternatives, captions, transcripts, and ensuring that interactive elements are operable and understandable.
Color Contrast and Visual Design: We understand the importance of color contrast and visual design in making content accessible to users with visual impairments. We ensure sufficient color contrast ratios between text and background colors and avoid relying solely on color to convey information.
Responsive and Mobile Accessibility: We ensure that websites are accessible on a variety of devices and screen sizes, including desktop computers, laptops, tablets, and smartphones. This involves implementing responsive design techniques and testing for accessibility across different viewport sizes and orientations.
User Testing and Feedback: We conduct usability testing to gather feedback and insights on the accessibility of websites. This feedback helps identify usability issues and informs iterative improvements to the accessibility of digital content.
Accessibility Compliance and Remediation: We help organizations achieve and maintain compliance with accessibility standards and regulations, such as the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in the United States and the European Union Web Accessibility Directive (EU-WAD). We provide guidance on remediation strategies for addressing accessibility issues and ensuring ongoing accessibility compliance.
Training and Awareness: We provide training and raise awareness among designers, developers, content creators, and other stakeholders about the importance of accessibility and best practices for creating accessible websites and digital content.
Accessibility Statements: We can help create an Accessibility Statement that outlines your organization's commitment to ensuring that your digital content, including websites, applications, and documents, is accessible to all users, including those with disabilities. An accessibility statement is important for several reasons including legal compliance, transparency, trust and reputation, and risk mitigation.
