This Learning Dynamics Texas accessibility audit and WCAG 2.1 AA remediation covered the website of a United States learning and education provider serving students and families in Texas.

A learning provider’s site helps families understand programmes, enrol and get in touch. Many of those families include people with disabilities, so the accessibility of that content and those forms decides whether the programmes are open to everyone.

Why accessibility is required for an education provider

Education providers carry clear accessibility duties. In the United States, Section 508 and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Title III require accessible education technology and information, and WCAG 2.1 Level AA is the working standard. For Learning Dynamics Texas the stakes are direct: students, parents and staff who use assistive technology must be able to read information, complete forms and reach learning materials just like everyone else — access to education depends on it.

Scope and standard

Our Learning Dynamics Texas accessibility audit assessed the site against WCAG 2.1 Level AA, mapped to the ADA, across the journeys that matter: programme and course pages, enrolment and contact forms, resources and downloads, and navigation.

How we ran the Learning Dynamics Texas accessibility audit

  • Screen-reader testing with JAWS and NVDA on Windows, VoiceOver on macOS and iOS, and TalkBack on Android
  • Automated audits with Deque axe, Google Lighthouse and WAVE
  • Keyboard-only operation of every step, with attention to focus order and a clearly visible focus indicator
  • Colour-contrast analysis, plus 400% zoom and reflow testing for low-vision users

What accessibility means on each part of the site

Because Learning Dynamics Texas serves learners and families, our Learning Dynamics Texas accessibility audit focused on the parts they rely on:

  • Programme and information pages need a clear heading structure and readable text, so a screen-reader user can find what they need.
  • Enrolment, application and contact forms need programmatic labels, clear instructions and announced errors, so signing up never depends on sight or a mouse.
  • Documents, calendars and resources need to be tagged and readable, since much information is delivered as downloads.
  • Any learning tools or portals need keyboard operability, managed focus and assistive-technology support.
  • Navigation and content need visible focus, sufficient colour contrast and clean reflow at high zoom.

Outcome

This Learning Dynamics Texas accessibility audit, combining manual and automated testing with remediation, brought the site into line with WCAG 2.1 AA expectations, so people using a screen reader or a keyboard can use it without barriers. Every fix was verified with assistive technology rather than assumed from an automated pass, so the result holds up in real use.
