Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG)

I aim to ensure that any content I create complies with WCAG 2.2 to AA level. This should mean that people using assistive technologies such as JAWS (and other screen readers), ZoomText (and other screen magnifiers) and Dragon (and other speech-to-text applications) can access my content without difficulties.

WCAG(Wuh-KAG) 2.2 was published on 5th October 2023. Before that, I worked to WCAG 2.1. In these guidance pages, I have marked the new WCAG 2.2 criteria as new.

This section is constantly growing and evolving. I have split the information into the four sections of WCAG. These sections contain specific information about what each criteria means and how to achieve it.

Please choose from the following options to learn more about how to make your content accessible.

One of the items in the WAS body of knowledge is to identify the conformance level of each WCAG 2.2 success criterion. I know many of them but I wanted to be sure I'd learned them all, so I created a quiz. The body of knowledge also says that candidates should understand the history of WCAG, and it implies that we should know which success criteria were added in 2.1 and 2.2. So I added a quiz for that too.
