Rockville, VA - April 28, 2008 -- TecAccess, the most awarded provider of accessibility consulting, is kicking off 2008 by encouraging accessible and usable web design for people with disabilities by offering FREE high level examinations of Web-based products. TecAccess sees its free accessibility testing as the first step in making websites truly useful and accessible to all computer users -- including people with disabilities and the mature audience.
"At TecAccess we believe that all websites should be designed in such a fashion that clearly communicates your message, data, and graphics in accessible formats, thereby allowing everyone to enjoy the information that you´ve worked so hard to share and publish online," explains Debra Ruh, Chairman and Founder.
"By making your technology accessible you´ll effectively reach a larger audience, one that is a powerful demographic," says Ruh. "People with disabilities are one of the largest and fastest growing minority group in the world."
This unique offering (available to businesses and government agencies) relies on the expertise of TecAccess´ accessibility analysts, many of whom have disabilities. The team uses a proven combination of manual and assistive technology checks to ensure a high-level accessibility reading of the top three pages of your site. The resulting sample report provides clients with an overview of what issues the designer needs to focus on in order to bring the product into Section 508 compliance.
The Free Accessibility Review deliverable consists of:
- Summary of issues
- Details of issues recorded:
- Name of page
- Section 508 issue found
- W3C issue found (priority 1 and 2 only)
- General pointers and suggestions
Complete this form to get your Free Accessibility Review started!
Disclaimer: The Free Accessibility Review produces a sample report, and may not reflect all accessibility issues.
