Video Transcript
The video shows an animated compliance score meter, resembling a speedometer. The needle moves from 0% to 100%, illustrating the following:
- As the needle moves towards 100%, the "Pass" score increases.
- Simultaneously, the "Fail" score decreases.
- The "Total" score remains constant throughout the animation.
This visual representation demonstrates how improving WCAG compliance increases the "Pass" score while reducing the number of failures, ultimately aiming for 100% compliance.
Understanding Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG)
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) are the internationally recognized standards that describe how to make digital content accessible to individuals with visual, auditory, motor, or cognitive disabilities. Developed by W3C, WCAG defines success criteria organized under four core principles: perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust (POUR). Designed to benefit everyone—not just people with disabilities—these guidelines help ensure websites, online tools, and digital experiences are inclusive and barrier-free. WCAG compliance is frequently referenced in legislation and procurement frameworks globally—including Canada’s AODA and ACA—making it a key part of your digital compliance strategy.
Priority Key Areas Covered Under WCAG
Our WCAG expertise spans critical areas you must address for full compliance and usability:
- Accessible Navigation: Keyboard support, clear focus indicators, and logical tab order

- Interactive Component Compliance: Form labeling, error handling, and sufficient click/tap size
- Contrast & Visual Accessibility: Adequate color contrast and scalable text support
- Assistive Tech Compatibility: Ensuring support for screen readers, magnifiers, and voice control
These focus areas guide both technical compliance and meaningful user experience.
