Posted: December 19th 2018 — Last updated: January 6th 2026

Measures to support accessibility

itslearning takes the following measures to ensure accessibility of our platform:

  • We have a dedicated accessibility team tasked with improving accessibility in our platform
  • We include accessibility considerations throughout our internal policies
  • We provide continuous accessibility training for our staff
  • We assign clear accessibility targets and responsibilities

 

Status

itslearning is working towards compliance with WCAG 2.2 level AA. Any exceptions are listed below.

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) detail accessibility requirements for product designers and developers. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA.

Although our goal is WCAG 2.2 Level AA conformance, we have also applied some Level AAA Success Criteria. For example, our UI components are created to support both AA and AAA color contrast standards.

 

How we test for accessibility

Our principal method of assessment is through rigorous internal evaluation where we test a representative selection of pages and functionality in itslearning. Our approach is based on recommendations from the W3C Web Accessibility Iniative. Issues that are found are logged and fixed as soon as possible. 


Our accessibility statement is updated whenever we make changes and improvements that impact the overall results, and reflects the current status.
