WorkRamp Accessibility Statement

WorkRamp is committed to ensuring the digital accessibility of our LMS for all users. We strive to continually improve the user experience for everyone by meeting the WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility standards.

Our Approach to Accessibility

WorkRamp considers accessibility throughout all phases of our product development cycle, from research and design through development and QA. We believe that designing to benefit people with disabilities creates products that better serve all users.

We work hard to meet level AA of the WCAG 2.1 standards through a combination of research, implementation techniques, tools, and testing. Our goal is to continuously improve and enhance the experience for all users. We build accessibility standards into all the components of our design system to deliver an inclusive experience across products.

Conformance Status

While we are continuously working to improve the usability of our products, WorkRamp is currently partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA standards. This means that some parts of the platform do not fully conform to the accessibility standards.

Areas not fully conformant

Employee Learning Cloud:
- Events - Calendar View only
- Guides - Attach File component - this uses a third party service
Admin console

All pages and functionality not listed above should be assumed to be WCAG 2.1 AA compliant.
