Industry Consensus Standards for Accessibility Test Reporting

There is no standard way of reporting on whether consumer technologies are accessible to people with disabilities. We need to create a clear and standard way to access and report accessibility test results for all consumer products, websites, mobile apps, and other technologies.

Chris Law has spearheaded the creation of a new nonprofit member organization to achieve this mission.

Find out more about this exciting new initative, and join us in defining new standards at StandardARI.org.

Responding to accessibility issues in business (Thesis Cover Page)

Responding to Accessibility Issues in Business

Chris Law’s Doctoral Thesis at the School of Business Information Technology, RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia (February 2010)

The first study to answer the research question, ‘What organizational factors are involved in successfully addressing the needs of customers with disabilities in the design, development and delivery of products and services?’.

The seven organizational success factors resulting from the study—and presented in 2010—are still just as relevant today as when they were first published: (1) adopting the social model of disability; (2) establishing executive-level backing; (3) establishing accessibility as a priority on the agenda; (4) taking a planned, proactive approach; (5) making accessibility a shared task; (6) providing enabling resources; and (7) providing sources of accessibility expertise.
