At Vernier Science Education, we aim to make our digital resources accessible to all users, including individuals with disabilities. We use the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 AA as a reference point to guide improvements in accessibility.

Our Approach

We are actively working to improve accessibility across our platform. Key areas of focus include:

  • Standards Alignment
    We strive to align our platform with WCAG 2.2 AA guidelines.
  • Assistive Technology Support
    We consider compatibility with tools such as screen readers, keyboard navigation, and speech recognition software.
  • Feedback-Informed Updates
    Platform updates may incorporate accessibility improvements based on user feedback and evolving best practices.
  • Team Awareness
    Our staff is regularly engaged in discussions about accessibility to support inclusive product design.

Accessibility Features

  • Text alternatives for meaningful images and media
  • Keyboard operability for core features
  • Consideration of color contrast and readable fonts
  • Responsive layouts for various devices and screen sizes

Limitations and Third-Party Content

Some third-party tools or content may not yet fully meet WCAG 2.2 AA standards. We work with providers to encourage accessibility improvements where feasible.

Feedback and Support

We welcome feedback on any accessibility barriers. Please contact us at:

We aim to respond to accessibility inquiries in a timely manner.
