Website Accessibility

For web and accessibility standards, you can design a website that conforms to guidelines defined by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and its Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI). The W3C created the WAI to explain how to provide web content to people with disabilities. The WAI guidelines are intended for use by all web content developers such as page authors and website designers, and for developers of authoring tools. A select number of parts meet strict WAI level AA compliance guidelines by way of automated validation, while others meet WAI level A compliance. For more information about the creation or design of a WAI compliant website, contact Blackbaud Support.
