ZEP QUIZ Accessibility and Inclusion Statement (Including VPAT)
Our Goals
ZEP QUIZ exists to motivate every learner—and that is impossible unless the platform is accessible to as many students and educators as possible. Accessibility work is never “complete”; it is a continuous process guided by:
W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level A + AA
Direct feedback from teachers, students, accessibility specialists, and parents
Community feedback has already shaped features such as Student Support Profiles (25 + built-in accommodations now used by millions). A few examples appear below.
We also publish a Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT) that maps ZEP QUIZ to WCAG 2.1 / 2.2 Level A & AA. Request a copy any time (see “Further Information”).
What is WCAG?
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) are the global standard for making digital content usable by everyone, including people with disabilities. Conformance levels are:
Level A — foundational requirements
Level AA — enhanced accessibility (our target)
Level AAA — optimal accessibility (aspirational)
