Web Accessibility in the 2024 Presidential Campaigns - webaim.org/blog/2024-camp… John Northup ran the US presidential campaign websites through WebAIM's AIM (Accessibility IMpact) testing process to determine which scores the best.
It's been a very long time coming, but the ADA now officially defines technical standards for web and mobile content - federalregister.gov/documents/2024… The scope is currently public entities with enforcement starting in June 2026.
We've made a few minor updates to the 2024 WebAIM Million report - webaim.org/projects/milli… We added Category data for all 1M pages. Thank you to @webshrinker for providing this data. We also added a chart showing changes in prevalence of error types over time.
In today's digital-first world, #document #accessibility is essential. Join @webaim's George Joeckel during #AccessU2024 for an interactive, hands-on, 1-day deep dive & learn how to "Create Accessible Documents in Office 365: Word, PowerPoint, & Excel." ow.ly/Sx1A50Rjc3S
The 2024 WebAIM Million report is now available - webaim.org/projects/milli… This year's annual analysis of the accessibility of the top 1M home pages found increases in errors, but some positive trends. This research is supported in part by @browserstack - browserstack.com/a11y-testing-w…
Twice in one day I've managed to guide a better outcome by using stats from the @webaim screen reader users' survey (now in new! shiny! 10th edition webaim.org/projects/scree…). Thanks, WebAIM folks, for all the hard work you folks put in. It's really appreciated. xxx
The results of WebAIM's recent screen reader user survey are available at webaim.org/projects/scree… A summary of key findings is at webaim.org/blog/screen-re…
Watch @jared_w_smith’s presentation on The @webaim Million at axe-con. He contextualizes some important web accessibility statistics in one of the best ways I’ve seen: youtube.com/live/NSQK6T1oQ… . Kudos Jared!
Check out the sleek new UI in the @webaim Color Contrast Checker! webaim.org/resources/cont…
The WebAIM Screen Reader User Survey - webaim.org/projects/scree… - will close to responses on January 31. If you use a screen reader, please take a few minutes to provide responses to help inform the accessibility field.

The 7th Annual ICT Accessibility Testing Symposium is coming soon. ictaccessibilitytesting.org This is an excellent conference for anyone doing or interested in accessibility testing. WebAIM's Jared Smith (@jared_w_smith) will be providing the keynote talk on Thursday.
In this article, we go beyond form accessibility basics and discuss 4 form functionalities most websites don’t consider in their form design. blog.pope.tech/2023/09/26/for…
We’re offering our next workshop on organizational accessibility strategy beginning on October 25! One workshop, four sessions. Learn ways to make accessibility a part of the way your organization works! Details at webaim.org/training/strat…

LOVE that #WebAIMConf lets participants stay in the same virtual room for all sessions + gives 10 minutes between sessions. No looking for links. No rushing to be on time, and in the right place. And, easier for their production team (most likely!). Kudos! #a11y #conference
Thank you @LevelAccessA11y and @webaim! We really appreciate the support of two great industry leaders, and the #SODAR2022 participants!
#SODAR2022 survey participants voted for a disability-related non-profit to receive a $5000 donation. We're thrilled to announce this year's winner is @webaim, who generously chose to split the donation with @NVAccess. Congratulations to these two very worthy organizations! #a11y
@BenDMyers @webaim Yeah I'd bet that 90% of those are social media icons. I see that _so often_.
@jared_w_smith @stevefaulkner Role=none support is fine n dandy. If memory serves, ie11 is the only reason to still use presentation. Because, of course it would be. Haunting us until the end of its days.
