Accessibility

At CareerSpring, we prioritize efforts to ensure the user-friendliness of our online career access model, via our public website as well as our Career Platform. In doing so, we use the World Wide Web Consortium’s documented Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) as the standards of quality that drive our websites’ design, development, and ongoing maintenance or improvements. 

In regard to our most recent WCAG compliance, we share the following:  

• Our public website, www.careerspring.org, was last updated for content development and design in August 2025. In November 2025, we used AccessibilityChecker to conduct an online accessibility (WCAG) audit of our website and achieved a compliant report.

• Our login-accessible website: mycareerspring.org (also known as the Career Platform), is powered by Hivebrite, a Software-as-a-Service (SAAS) provider that specializes in online community management and engagement platforms. In June of 2025, Hivebrite employed automated testing using axe plugin for Chrome, as well as manual testing that included: VoiceOver (Mac OS screenreader), keyboard navigation, Chrome zoom-in to 200%, as well as Chrome and Firefox increased font-size to 32px, to complete an online accessibility (WCAG) audit (based on VPAT Version 2.4) of its software’s Public office and Front office, and achieved a compliant report for Levels A and AA of WCAG 2.0 and 2.1.

Given that WCAG compliance remains an ongoing effort, in light of continually evolving standards and guidelines, we are committed to updating our WCAG compliance documentation on a regular basis. We also welcome partner institutions and organizations to express their specific WCAG needs/interests to facilitate our ongoing improvement in this realm, and to serve a growing number of individuals with diverse needs.
