Accessibility Commitment
VDOE is committed to providing web content that is accessible to all – including people with disabilities – and to meeting or exceeding all state and national accessibility standards.
Accessibility Plan
At a minimum, the VDOE website meets W3C’s WCAG 1.0 Level A and current federal Rehabilitation Act Section 508 standards. The agency is working towards WCAG 2.0 Level AA compliance.
The goals of the VDOE Website Accessibility Plan are as follows:
- All new content posted on the VDOE website after January 18, 2018, will meet W3C’s WCAG 2.0 Level AA compliance.
- All content posted prior to January 18, 2018, will be remediated to meet W3C’s WCAG 2.0 Level AA compliance as soon as possible.
