Accessibility checker specifically for Storyline/eLearning courses

May 04, 2020

Hello eLearning Community!

Is there an accessibility checker made specifically to test Storyline/eLearning courses? I've tried Accessibility Insights and WAVE but it seems those were made to test a normal website. A Storyline output is an HTML5 file but it is a self-contained product, not a website.

Thanks!

Hi Seth and Alison,

Thanks for letting us know that an accessibility checker would also be helpful for you! I’ve added your voice to the feature report. It’s not currently on our feature roadmap, but I’ll be sure to update this discussion if our team decides to reroute.

Thanks so much, Josh! I stand corrected. The Accessibility Checker is now included in our feature roadmap.

Though I cannot provide a timeline on when this new feature will be released to Storyline 360, our product team is now working on it. We'll surely let you know once it is available. Stay tuned!
