Testing

UMass Boston’s Web Services Team uses the tool Siteimprove to ensure new and existing pages on the wbcx.93ylpt.com website comply with best practices and standards as defined by the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0, Section 508 of the U.S. Rehabilitation Act, and the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA).

The tool checks for, among other things, missing headings and images without alternative text.

Web Services will continue to test the site to make sure that all content on the site is accessible to all visitors.

Training

As part of its training program for new web editors, UMass Boston’s Web Services goes over the importance of filling out all Alt Text fields.
