What is WCAG 2.0? 

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 defines how to make web content more accessible to people with disabilities. Accessibility involves a wide range of disabilities, including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, language, learning, and neurological disabilities. The Information & Communication Standards under AODA requires current Humber websites to conform to WCAG 2.0 level A and subsequently level AA by 2021. Web accessibility is about everyone being able to access Humber's websites successfully, including people using handheld devices, WebTV and in-car browsers.

The Centre for Human Rights, Equity & Diversity has developed a WCAG 2.0 level A and level AA Checklist to support Humber’s web developers and website content providers. For this and other accessibility related resources contact: Jodie Glean, jodie.glean@humber.ca.
