508 and Course navigation with embedded Link

I'm hoping someone can help me. We have some SharePoint Links embedded in our Rise 360 course, and the links take the learner outside the carousel and open in a new window. For 508 compliance, the learner then has to "tab" through the entire page to return to where they left off on the training. Is there a setting where the learner can return to where they left off in the training without tabbing through everything? From our 508 reviewer, we are getting "the focus order of the slide is out of order." I would appreciate any guidance on this.  Thanks!

    I normally provide a Navigation page with instructions - one of the instruction has to do with navigating back to the course from a newly opened window. - If a hyperlink opens in a new window or tab, press ALT+TAB to navigate back to the main course window.

      KevinNolty​ Thank you! Would you mind sharing your Navigation page instructions? I would love to see any other instructions you provide!

        Attached is a story with two scenes. I have navigation available in two areas. 1. Navigation slide and 2. Lightbox. The first scene is my normal training slides and I place the "Course Navigation" normally on the second slide. The Title slide has a text box off to the side that is hidden visually when launched, but it is the first object read for a screen reader (see focus order). It allows the user to know there is a "lightbox" available (2nd scene) with more keyboard shortcuts. This light box is available through a programmed keyboard shortcut (Alt+A) or on the Player Tabs (top-right hand corner) that I had to create ACCESSIBILTY (ALT+A). See the Maser Slide for the two Key Press Triggers to open/close the Lightbox. I didn't invent the wheel here and I apologize ahead of time to the person that did give me this answer (kudos to you), but I can't seem to find their information to give them credit.
