WCAG Service

It has to be said that the WCAG 2.0 is a big minefield.

Implementing it even to Level A can tie up some of your best people for days.

Consider using my professional service to validate your accessibility requirement and verify your accessibility implementation.

I can either produce a spreadsheet listing suggested changes, or you can give me a login and I can just get stuck in and make the changes myself.

Phone 021 488 480 to discuss your requirement.

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0

The WCAG 2.0 can be overwhelming. This is counter-productive because a course designer who was prepared to do something, might now end up doing nothing. There's a very useful tool on the How to Meet WCAG 2.0 which narrows the quick reference down to just what you're focusing on. For example Level A Success Criteria are the basic level, Level AA is the next level up, and Level AAA is the most comprehensive. So it would make sense to narrow it to, say, Level A HTML and CSS only and make a start there. To take a staged approach like this is both pragmatic and valid.

Here are the headings from the output, as you see it doesn't now look too daunting:

Text Alternatives
Time-based Media
Adaptable
Distinguishable
Keyboard Accessible
Enough Time
Seizures
Navigable
Readable
Predictable
Input Assistance
Compatible

This topic is a work in progress, I will be building on it through 2011.
