Making eLearning Accessible for Everyone

Accessibility in eLearning involves the creation of a piece of online learning that can be experienced by as many people as possible. It is common that government agencies focus the most intently on accessibility, as do higher education institutions and corporations, but it’s a good idea for everyone to follow accessibility best practices. eLearning is a fantastic way to keep your staff trained and up-to-date, but what if the user is vision impaired, hearing impaired or has poor motor skills?

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, or WCAG, is a global set of guidelines followed around the world, to ensure that online content can be easily accessed and utilised by users that experience that content through a variety of means, including screen-readers, specialised hardware, even using closed-captioning, and visual design to accommodate low vision and colour blindness.

At ITC Learning, we offer a range of content development services to help you create a custom eLearning solution. On top of this, our eLearning Design Team are experts at building courses for Accessibility. With over 100 WCAG compliant eLearning projects under our belts, we can build your next eLearning project and ensure compliance with full WCAG 2.0 AA standards.

Already have a project built, but need to make sure it is fully accessible? Our Design Team can give you a hand converting your eLearning to comply with the standards and get you WCAG ready.

Building your own WCAG compliant eLearning content or hoping to start? ITC Learning’s expert facilitators can show you how.
