    Hi there, Jennifer. No update yet. Our plans are to meet WCAG 2.1 by the end of 2020. We'll let you know when we've got more to share!

      Hello Crystal,

      I am wondering if there are any updates regarding screen reader support in 2021?

        Hi Reginald! 

        We now officially support NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver, and TalkBack screen readers with Rise 360 courses. We released a Voluntary Product Accessibility Template® (VPAT®) that outlines the WCAG Level A and Level AA criteria conformance for Rise 360.

        We also put together a journal where you can find all the details on the features we’ve enhanced in Rise 360 as we work towards WCAG 2.1 compliance. And we’ll keep this journal updated as we continue our accessibility journey. -  Rise 360: Our Accessibility Journey

        You can also check out our planned Rise 360's features that support Section 508 guidelines.
