Our Approach to Accessibility
Confirm 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 2.2 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, Confirm is currently partially conformant with WCAG 2.2 level AA standards. This means that some parts of the platform do not fully conform to the accessibility standards.
Recent Accessibility Focused Developments Completed
Added for WCAG 2.2:
- 2.4.11 Focus Not Obscured (AA): When the user interface component receives keyboard focus, the component is not entirely hidden due to author-created content.
- 2.5.7 Dragging Movements (AA): All functionality that uses a dragging movement for operation can be achieved by a single pointer without dragging, unless dragging is essential or the functionality is determined by the user agent and not modified by the author.
- 2.5.8 Target Size (Minimum) (AA): The size of the target for pointer inputs is at least 24 by 24 CSS pixels
- 3.2.6 Consistent Help (A): If a web page contains any of the following help mechanisms, and those mechanisms are repeated on multiple web pages within a set of web pages, they occur in the same relative order to other page content, unless a change is initiated by the user.
- 3.3.7 Redundant Entry (A): Information previously entered by or provided to the user that is required to be entered again in the same process is either: auto-populated, or available for the user to select. Except when: re-entering the information is essential, the information is required to ensure the security of the content, or previously entered information is no longer valid.
- 3.3.8 Accessible Authentication (Minimum) (AA): A cognitive function test (such as remembering a password or solving a puzzle) is not required for any step in an authentication process unless that step provides at least an a) An Alternative authentication method or b) A mechanism which is available to assist the user in completing the cognitive function test or c) an object recognition test is to recognize objects. Or (d) Personal Content to identify non-text content the user provided to the website.

Conformance Status
While we are continuously working to improve the usability of our products, Learn:Up is currently partially conformant with WCAG 2.2 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 2.2 AA compliant.
Recent Accessibility Focused Developments Completed
- SC 1.1.1: Non-text Content (Level A) – Create a text alternative for visual and auditory content
- SC 1.3.1: Info and Relationships (Level A) – Use code to reinforce relationships and information conveyed through presentation, so users can adapt the presentation to suit their needs while preserving the original meaning.
- SC 1.4.1: Use of Colour (Level A) – Use information in addition to colour, such as shape or text, to convey meaning
- SC 1.4.3: Contrast (Minimum) (Level AA) – Ensure all text elements have sufficient colour contrast between the text in the foreground and background colour behind it.
- SC 2.1.1: Keyboard (Level A) – Ensure pointer actions have a keyboard equivalent
- SC 2.4.1: Bypass Blocks (Level A) – Provide mechanisms to skip repetitive content and ensure that blocks of content, such as frames, are properly titled so users can navigate directly to the main information.
- SC 2.5.8: Target Size (Minimum) (Level AA) – Ensure interactive targets are large enough for users to activate easily.
- SC 4.1.2: Name, Role, Value (Level A) – Give components correct names, roles, states, and values, so assistive technology understand all components
