Introduction

Open OnDemand has undergone several reviews and updates to meet WCAG 2.2 guidelines. However, there are a few steps centers need to take to achieve complete compliance. These steps are documented here along with areas or certain features that are not complaint.

Accessibility Conformance Report

Developers have uploaded a VPAT document online on Open OnDemand's accessibility page which you may retrieve and review. This document is from the voluntary product assessment template a registered service mark of the Information Technology Industry Council (ITI).

Additional Configurations Needed

Here is a list of additional configurations that are needed to achieve full compliance with the WCAG 2.2 guidelines. Open OnDemand cannot ship with as they may be site specific.

• WCAG criterion 2.4.5 "Multiple Ways": Centers need to enable the show_all_apps_link configuration to complete this criteria. In addition to enabling the link in the navbar, it may be helpful to call attention and link to it in your homepage welcome message.

• WCAG criterion 3.2.6 "Consistent Help": Centers need to extend the help menu to complete this criteria.

• Links should open in the current tab or give warning when they open in a new tab or window. This is to adhere to WCAG Technique G200 "New Tabs" and WCAG Technique G201 "Advanced warning for new tabs". Note this applies any custom Menus for custom pages your center may have created.

Custom pages and Passenger applications

Centers that provide additional custom web pages, dashboard widgets, Passenger applications and so on should take care to meet the WCAG 2.2 guidelines. The developers of Open OnDemand can only manage and review the pages that are shipped in the packages, not any custom pages or Passenger applications that have been developed by any given center.
