Compliance Deadlines Are Here
And more are on their way.
Compliance is the first step towards creating equity in education and addressing the accessibility crisis. Fewer than 2% of institutions currently meet WCAG 2.1 AA compliance standards. Legal risks are rising, content accessibility backlogs are growing and many existing tools only flag issues without resolving them.
