Accessibility overviews

Accessibility overviews provide an intelligent benchmark of a website's accessibility. An initial automated test is followed by an expert review of the results, to provide an overview against RNIB Surf Right or the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG).

A purely automated test wouldn't be able to check all the features required for an accessible website. Even the best automated testing solutions can not identify all accessibility issues, some key problems can only be identified by human review. Our consultants verify the results of the automated test and integrate them with manual checks in order to ensure their completeness and accuracy.

If you are unsure about how compliant and accessible your website is, this is the optimal starting point for you. The results of an accessibility overview will give you an indication of the most prominent accessibility issues or confirm that your website is fully compliant to RNIB Surf Right or to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG).

An accessibility overview can be the ideal tool to help you make an informed decision on next steps and priorities.

You might want to integrate the overview with follow up consultancy meetings, commission a full audit or book a development audit for a new website.

A full audit informs website owners not only of where key accessibility issues exist, but also delivers indepth solutions to all issues identified, along with outlining exactly how each issue affects website users with disabilities. Customers choosing an accessibility overview will be able to follow up with a full audit at a discounted rate.
