Checklists and Compliance Documents

These pages support compliance work. Mark WCAG criteria, follow an ADA or Section 508 checklist, build a test plan, then write the documents: alt text for images, an accessibility statement and a VPAT with your conformance level.

Tools in this group

  • Accessibility Statement Generator — Fill in your site, the standard you aim for, its status, known limitations and how people can reach you; copy or download the statement.
