Measures to support accessibility
eCom Learning Solutions takes the following measures to ensure the accessibility of our website:
- We employ accessibility quality assurance methods; and
- Provide accessibility training for our staff.
For the best user experience, we recommend using the most up-to-date versions of Chrome, Edge, or Firefox on desktop. We have also tested this website on iOS Safari and Android Chrome.
Our primary testing environment for accessibility is NVDA and Firefox. Whilst we expect a good standard of accessibility with other software and device combinations, we cannot guarantee this.

Conformance status

The eCom Learning Solutions website is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA, however, some parts of the content do not meet this standard.
Additional accessibility considerations
Although our goal is WCAG 2.1 Level AA conformance, we have also applied some Level AAA Success Criteria: Location - Information about the user's location within a set of web pages is available. We provide a visible breadcrumb trail showing the user's location within the website.

Limitations and alternatives
Despite our best efforts to ensure accessibility of the eCom Learning Solutions website, there may be some limitations. Below is a description of known limitations, and potential solutions. Please contact us if you observe an issue not listed below.
Known limitations for eCom Learning Solutions website:
- Videos in our Resource Library: Videos do not currently have transcripts or captions. We are working hard to add transcripts and captions to all our videos by July 2022. Please contact us to request a text alternative.
- Not all images have ALT text: You may find some images which do not have ALT text. Many images on the website are decorative and have null ALT text, however, due to the number of images, we may have missed adding ALT text to images where it could be beneficial. We are constantly reviewing this and working to update ALT text where necessary. If you come across any images missing ALT text which you feel require it, please contact us using the details on this page.
- Case study PDFs: You may not be able to fully navigate our case study PDFs or other marketing materials using assistive technology. Many of these are legacy documents. We do not intend to update existing PDFs unless a specific request is made. New PDFs will be designed with accessibility in mind. All the content inside the Case Study PDF documents is now directly included on the web pages. However, if you require the content in an alternative format, please contact us.
Assessment approach
We have assessed the accessibility of the eCom Learning Solutions website using self-evaluation.
