Award Force is designed, tested and maintained with accessibility in mind. Screen reader friendly Award Force has been designed to be easily used with screen readers. Each element in Award Force has been labelled with screen readers in mind, ensuring the functional purpose is clear and the user is able to discern its purpose easily without the need for visually-assisted actions or visual prompts. Keyboard navigation Award Force can be navigated completely from a keyboard. Established keys like tab, shift, arrows and the enter key will get you and your users everywhere. Flexible colour options Award Force’s default theme settings are specifically designed to provide sufficient colour contrast to all awards participants. You also have complete control over the colour scheme used. Award Force makes more than 40 elements available for colour customisation, so it will not only work well for all your awards participants—it’ll look good too. Easy to read Consistent font use and large section headings throughout the platform ensures legibility across all media and makes it easy for everyone to use. Video captions Make videos more accessible with video captions. Caption files are supported across all uploaded video media. You’ll not have to download the videos for viewing either—they’ll play at the best quality possible, right from within the Award Force platform. Award Force is compliant with the following standards: WCAG 2.2 AA Standards Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) is developed through the W3C process in cooperation with individuals and organizations around the world, with a goal of providing a single shared standard for web content accessibility that meets the needs of individuals, organizations, and governments internationally.

Revised Section 508 Standards Section 508 accessibility standards contains accessibility standards that must be adhered to by all federally funded government agencies, and companies selling ICT (information and communication technology) to the federal government.
