Accessibility Consulting

 

The goal of Access Wise Consulting is to make Human Resources positions accessible to visually impaired employees, enabling them to pursue a career with a lot of room for learning and growth, and where they can experience the same level of success as their sighted peers. To that end, Access Wise Consulting provides in-depth accessibility evaluations to its clients using common web browsers and screen reading software to ensure that the greatest number of potential employees can be best served by the results. We empower organizations that develop Human Resources tools with the knowledge they need to ensure accessibility of their platforms.

 

We also provide ongoing, subscription-based plans for clients that wish to utilize our services to test any changes, updates, or new features, to ensure that they remain accessible to screen reader users.

 

The highest rated HR tools with regard to screen reader accessibility will receive one of the following badges, which will be displayed on a page of our website and can be displayed on theirs as well, to indicate that they have received a positive rating.

 

An eye with a gold iris, indicating an Excellent rating. Excellent

An eye with a silver iris, indicating a very good rating. Very Good

An eye with a bronze iris, indicating a good rating. Good

Live and pre-recorded training sessions (coming soon.)

 

Access Wise Consulting will provide pre-recorded or live training webinars on the use of Human Resources tools which have been determined to have a high accessibility rating, to empower candidates with the skills they need to be successful in the field of Human Resources. Businesses will still need to train for their specific needs, but candidates will have an understanding of how to use the platform with a screen reader.

 

Training for Businesses (Coming soon.)

 

While screen reader users are capable of using any platform that is coded to work with their screen reading software, sending all of the information that the user needs to navigate effectively, sighted trainers may notice, when training live or over screen sharing, that it may appear to them that the individual is not doing what they asked. This is because the way a screen reader renders a page and its controls differs somewhat from what is seen visually. To this end, Access Wise Consulting will be providing services to any business that is interested in hiring visually impaired Human Resources staff, to demonstrate how training may differ, as well as how to describe what to look for in terms that are usable by non-visual workers.

 

Job Placement Services (Coming soon.)

 

Access Wise Consulting would be happy to partner with any organization that is interested in diversifying their workforce by training candidates on the relevant tools and recommending them to positions that use the tools on which they have been trained. This will help promote inclusion in the workforce and close the unemployment gap between disabled and non-disabled workers.
