Declaration of accessibility
Accessibility is a constant focus in the development of Moodle LMS. With every Moodle release, we dedicate resources to improve accessibility in order to ensure that our software is accessible for everyone who uses it. We are keen to hear from people with suggestions for making Moodle and the course content that teachers create within ACSL Learn more accessible.
This website is built according to World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) level AA.
This means you should be able to:
- Enlarge text by zooming in.
- Read the text and view images that have a high contrast to their background.
- Change the background and text colour and fonts using browser plugins.
- Navigate the website using only a keyboard.
- Navigate using a screen-reader and speech-recognition software.
- Listen to texts and image descriptions using a screen-reader (such as NVDA).
The Accessibility conformance report (VPAT) for Moodle Learning Management System (LMS) is a statement from Moodle on how Moodle LMS complies with the WCAG 2.2 accessibility guidelines.
Moodle LMS has obtained WCAG 2.2 Level AA accreditation for Moodle 4.5.7 and later versions, indicating conformance with WCAG 2.2 Level AA standards. Moodle will continue to maintain this accreditation through follow-up audits for future releases.
Moodle's default TinyMCE text editor includes an accessibility checker to scan course content and alerts users to a range of accessibility issues that may be found within the text.
