Generally we work on complying with WCAG 2.1, but our department will also assist with Section 508 registration and ADA registration. If your website has been updated to adhere to WCAG 2.1 A, AA, or AAA, our certification will outline the compliance standard, as determined by an Open Web expert, on a particular date. There are three major criteria to obtain a certification in conformance with WCAG 2.1 online usability.
