Commitment to Digital Accessibility
The Safety Training Consortium values digital accessibility as an essential component of effective instructional design. We follow accessibility best practices according to Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1 AA ) to ensure that all learners can receive and fully understand training content.
Why is accessibility important?
- People who need auditory, cognitive, physical, speech, or visual accommodations
- Users facing situational constraints such as small screens, challenging environments, or slow internet
- People whose access needs may change temporarily or over time
- Course development follows Web Content Accessibility Guidelines
- Rigorous testing using keyboard-only navigation and screen readers
- Third-party accessibility certification
- Courses are compatible with accessible Learning Management Systems
- Tutorials and documents
- Presentations about accessibility
- Consultations on accessible course development
