Accessibility statement

I design accessible online learning, so this portfolio is built to the same standard. It aims to meet WCAG 2.2 level AA and the requirements of the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA).

What I did

  • Headings follow a clear outline on every page: one H1, then H2 and H3 in order, with no skipped levels.
  • Every page has a skip link, labelled landmarks and descriptive link text. Links that open a new tab say so.
  • Every text and background colour pair meets the 4.5:1 contrast ratio.
  • The whole site works from the keyboard, with a visible focus outline. Interactive diagrams can be used with the arrow keys, and each has a text explanation.
  • Buttons and navigation links are at least 44 by 44 pixels.
  • Pages reflow without horizontal scrolling down to a width of 320 pixels, the same as 400% zoom on a standard screen.
  • Animation is purposeful and gentle, and nothing flashes. When a page is loading, a progress bar and a short message tell you that something is happening. All of it turns off, or becomes still, when your device asks for reduced motion.
  • French passages are marked as French, so screen readers pronounce them correctly.
  • Meaning is never carried by colour alone. Every image has a title and a text description for screen readers, and nothing in an image is missing from the text beside it.
  • Every page is available in English and in French.

How I checked

  • Automated checks of colour contrast, heading order, landmarks, link and button names, image text alternatives, duplicate IDs, references between elements, target size and overflow, on all 12 pages in English and in French.
  • A keyboard walk-through of every page, and a test of each interactive diagram.
  • Layout tests at desktop, tablet, phone and 320-pixel widths.
  • Tests with reduced motion switched on, with text enlarged to 200%, with increased line, letter and word spacing, and with forced-colours (high-contrast) mode on.
  • A check that the skip link is the first stop for keyboard users on every page.

About the courses I link to

The live courses in my case studies are hosted on the college’s website. For the Storyline course I also made an accessible PDF alternative. If a font from Google Fonts does not load, your device uses its own font and the text stays readable.

Feedback

If something on this site is hard to use, please tell me. Write to albert@adamavi.ca and say which page and what went wrong, and I will fix it.
