Course Accessibility

Jul 14, 2021

Hi

I have created quite a detailed course using Storyline 360 and taken great effort to ensure it meets accessibility requirements. Thanks to Articulate for their efforts to help with accessibility.

However, the course is hosted on a WordPress LearnDash LMS which I have just found out is not compliant with WCAG or at least is very hard for learners using text readers to navigate to the course lessons created in 360.

Has anyone experienced anything similar and found a solution? We have spent a long time setting up Learn Dash and it is working well apart from this issue.

Do we make the course available on a separate platform for those with visual impairment (not ideal) and if so which? (Rise?)

Any ideas or experience will be much appreciated.

Thanks

Sue

Hello Sue,

I am sorry that you are having trouble integrating with Wordpress. Although I have not personally had issues with WordPress LearnDash LMS and WCAG compliance, I can attest to both Storyline and Rise’s accessibility options. 

Here are some useful links that I found that I thought may interest you:

Storyline 360: Adjustable Accessibility Settings 

Storyline 360 Supports Web Content Accessibility Guidelines

Rise 360: Our Accessibility Journey

Rise 360 Supports Section 508 Accessibility Guidelines

Storyline 360 supports WCAG 2.1 Level AA, including screen readers, keyboard navigation, visible focus indicators, and more. 

I hope this is helpful!
