The software development team at Columbia CTL is committed to making CompilED content inclusive and accessible for everyone, including people with disabilities.
Conformance status
We are continually producing content on CompilED that meets the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). CompilED is partially conformant to WCAG 2.0 Level AA.
Limitations
CompilED has been audited and evaluated with the assessment tools mentioned in this statement. Some parts of the content do not fully conform to the WCAG 2.0 standards:
- Third-party content (external videos, embedded documents, images) used in CompilED may not be fully accessible.
- Articles published prior to 2016 may not be fully compliant.
Assessment approach
We assessed and tested CompilED using the following accessibility scanners. Nearly all of the pages show minor to no violations of the accessibility standards.
- Siteimpove accessibility checker, by Siteimprove
- Wave web accessibility evaluation tool by WebAIM
- Axe web accessibility testing tool by Deque Systems
- VoiceOver, the screen reader by Apple
