Bodhih LMS Accessibility and VPAT (WCAG 2.2 AA)

Our commitment

Target: WCAG 2.2 Level AA across the learner experience, company administration and public pages. The same criteria cover Section 508 (United States) and EN 301 549 (European Union) for web content.

New features are checked against these criteria before release. The platform is partially conformant today: most criteria are fully met and the gaps are listed below, with what we are doing about them.

What works today

A "Skip to main content" link and page landmarks on every signed-in and public page.
A clear focus ring on everything you can reach with the keyboard, and keyboard operation of every platform feature.
Navigation that collapses into a menu on phones, so nothing is lost at 320 px wide.
Labelled forms, errors written out in words, and no time limits outside timed tests.
Respect for "reduce motion" settings; nothing flashes or plays sound by itself.
Quiz and review results that say "right answer" and "your answer" in words, not only colour.
Captions in the video player when they are supplied, and AI-built courses delivered as real text that screen readers and translation tools can read.

Known gaps and plans

Uploaded content (SCORM, cmi5, PDFs, slides, video) is only as accessible as its author made it. Bodhih’s own courses are being checked; company admins should ask their content vendors for accessible packages and captions.
Some older Super Admin screens (used only by Bodhih staff) have small targets, drag-only reordering and unlabelled table layouts. These are being reworked.
Some light grey hint text and form borders are below the contrast ratios; we are darkening them.
Passages in another language inside a lesson are not tagged with their language.

Report a barrier

If something on Bodhih is hard or impossible to use, email solutions@bodhih.com with the page and what happened. We reply within five working days, and we will get you the content another way in the meantime.

Table 1: WCAG 2.2 Level A

Criterion	Conformance	Remarks
1.1.1 Non-text Content	Partially supports	Platform images have text alternatives or are marked decorative. Images inside uploaded courses (SCORM, cmi5, PDF, slides) depend on the author.
1.2.1 Audio-only and Video-only (Prerecorded)	Partially supports	Depends on the uploaded media. Authors can add a transcript as a document lesson next to the media.
1.2.2 Captions (Prerecorded)	Partially supports	The video player shows WebVTT captions when the author provides them. Videos uploaded without captions have none.
1.2.3 Audio Description or Media Alternative (Prerecorded)	Partially supports	Depends on the uploaded media.
1.3.1 Info and Relationships	Partially supports	Headings, lists, labelled fields, fieldsets and table headers are marked up in learner, company and public screens. A few older Super Admin screens use layout without full structure.
1.3.2 Meaningful Sequence	Supports	Reading order follows the visual order.
1.3.3 Sensory Characteristics	Supports	Instructions do not rely on shape, colour, size or position alone.
1.4.1 Use of Color	Supports	Status (done, due, right or wrong answer) is given in words as well as colour.
1.4.2 Audio Control	Supports	Nothing plays sound automatically.
2.1.1 Keyboard	Partially supports	All platform features work with a keyboard. Third-party SCORM and cmi5 content, and some interactive simulations, depend on how they were built.
2.1.2 No Keyboard Trap	Supports	Focus can always move out of menus, dialogs and embedded course frames.
2.1.4 Character Key Shortcuts	Supports	No single-key shortcuts outside a focused media player.
2.2.1 Timing Adjustable	Partially supports	Timed quizzes and proctored assessments are timed on purpose (an essential test condition). Everything else has no time limit; sessions last a day.
2.2.2 Pause, Stop, Hide	Supports	No auto-moving, blinking or auto-updating content that cannot be paused, apart from short status messages.
2.3.1 Three Flashes or Below Threshold	Supports	No flashing content in the platform.
2.4.1 Bypass Blocks	Supports	"Skip to main content" is the first link on every page, and pages use landmarks.
2.4.2 Page Titled	Supports	Every page has a descriptive title.
2.4.3 Focus Order	Supports	Focus moves in the same logical order as the page reads.
2.4.4 Link Purpose (In Context)	Supports	Links and buttons say where they go or what they do, together with their surrounding text.
2.5.1 Pointer Gestures	Supports	No path-based or multi-point gestures are required.
2.5.2 Pointer Cancellation	Supports	Actions run on release, not on press.
2.5.3 Label in Name	Supports	Visible labels are part of the accessible name.
2.5.4 Motion Actuation	Not applicable	No feature is operated by moving the device.
3.1.1 Language of Page	Supports	Pages declare their language.
3.2.1 On Focus	Supports	Focusing a control never changes context.
3.2.2 On Input	Supports	Changing a setting does not move you elsewhere without warning.
3.2.6 Consistent Help	Supports	The support contact appears in the same place on every learner page.
3.3.1 Error Identification	Supports	Errors are described in words next to the form; newer screens also announce them to screen readers.
3.3.2 Labels or Instructions	Supports	Fields have labels, and formats (phone numbers, passwords) are explained.
3.3.7 Redundant Entry	Supports	Information already given is not asked for again in the same process.
4.1.2 Name, Role, Value	Partially supports	Platform controls expose names, roles and states (expanded, current page, pressed). Third-party course content depends on its author.

Table 2: WCAG 2.2 Level AA

Criterion	Conformance	Remarks
1.2.4 Captions (Live)	Not applicable	Live sessions run in Zoom, Microsoft Teams or Google Meet, which provide live captions.
1.2.5 Audio Description (Prerecorded)	Partially supports	Depends on the uploaded media.
1.3.4 Orientation	Supports	Works in portrait and landscape.
1.3.5 Identify Input Purpose	Partially supports	Sign-in and sign-up fields declare their purpose (name, email, password, organisation, phone). Some admin forms do not yet.
1.4.3 Contrast (Minimum)	Partially supports	Body text meets 4.5:1. Some secondary hint text in admin screens is lighter. A company’s own brand colour can lower contrast in its branded areas; academy pages pick black or white text automatically for contrast.
1.4.4 Resize Text	Supports	Text resizes to 200% without loss of content.
1.4.5 Images of Text	Partially supports	Certificates are generated as images and PDFs; their details are also available as text on the verification page.
1.4.10 Reflow	Partially supports	Learner, company and public pages reflow to 320 px wide (navigation collapses into a menu). Wide data tables scroll sideways. The Super Admin console is designed for desktop.
1.4.11 Non-text Contrast	Partially supports	Focus rings and primary buttons meet 3:1. Some form-field borders are lighter than 3:1; the field labels identify them.
1.4.12 Text Spacing	Supports	Content adapts to increased letter, word, line and paragraph spacing.
1.4.13 Content on Hover or Focus	Supports	No content appears on hover or focus alone; menus open on click or Enter and close the same way.
2.4.5 Multiple Ways	Supports	Navigation menus, the catalogue, links between related pages and a sitemap.
2.4.6 Headings and Labels	Supports	Headings and labels describe their topic or purpose.
2.4.7 Focus Visible	Supports	A visible focus ring on every interactive element reached by keyboard.
2.4.11 Focus Not Obscured (Minimum)	Supports	Sticky bars leave room so a focused item is not hidden.
2.5.7 Dragging Movements	Partially supports	Lessons and modules in the AI course builder move with Up and Down buttons. Some older Super Admin authoring screens reorder by dragging only.

3.1.2 Language of Parts	Partially supports	A course can be marked as another language; individual passages inside lessons are not tagged.
3.2.3 Consistent Navigation	Supports	Navigation is in the same place and order on every page of each area.
3.2.4 Consistent Identification	Supports	Things that do the same job are named the same way.
3.3.3 Error Suggestion	Supports	Error messages say how to fix the problem.
3.3.4 Error Prevention (Legal, Financial, Data)	Supports	Purchases are confirmed before payment; deletions and withdrawals ask for confirmation.
3.3.8 Accessible Authentication (Minimum)	Supports	Passwords and one-time codes can be pasted and filled by password managers; the bot check needs no puzzle; single sign-on is available.
4.1.3 Status Messages	Partially supports	Saves, results and errors in newer screens are announced without moving focus; some older admin messages are not yet announced.
