Learn how Adobe Connect addresses visual, auditory, and mobility challenges, aligning with key compliance standards.
Adobe Connect allows trainers, presenters, and meeting hosts to deliver engaging and informative experiences. The application is continuously enhanced to meet the needs of all types of users and to adhere to worldwide standards that include individuals with visual, auditory, mobility, or other impairments.
Adobe Connect publishes conformance information that describes the standards it adheres to, outlines the accessibility features of the reports, and describes the level of compliance. The Accessibility Conformance Reports help Adobe Connect users understand the level of adherence to various standards. The enhancements done in Adobe Connect allow all users to use the interfaces easily via keyboard, screen reader, magnifiers, and other assistive technologies.
Adobe Connect offers different levels of support for the following standards.
