Accessible by design
Learning without avoidable barriers.
MapleAware aims to make digital-safety and AI learning usable across age, ability, device, language comfort and technical experience.
Effective August 20, 2026 · Plain-language summaryOur design standard
We work toward WCAG 2.1 Level AA practices and the barrier-prevention direction of the Accessible Canada Act. Accessibility is treated as an ongoing program, not a one-time checklist.
What learners can expect
- Keyboard-accessible navigation and clear focus order
- Readable contrast, scalable text and plain language
- Captions or transcripts for recorded and live content
- Alternatives to colour-only instructions
- Enough time to read, decide and complete activities
- Support for screen readers and common mobile devices
Live sessions and seminars
Registration includes a way to request accessibility support. Available arrangements may include captions, slower pacing, printed materials, a support person or an alternative learning format.
Feedback
If a page, lesson or document creates a barrier, email accessibility@mapleaware.org. Include the page and the format that would work better. We will acknowledge the request and work toward a practical alternative.
Canadian guidance
Our approach is informed by the Government of Canada’s Accessible Canada Act summary and its Digital Accessibility Toolkit.
