Acquia Optimize<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Monsido,<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In the spring, we migrated from Siteimprove to Acquia Optimize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Acquia Optimize offers offers accurate reporting on content quality assurance and accessibility, and brings a variety of features such as built-in integration for third-party document remediation services and updated training to keep on top of evolving ADA compliance requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New document accessibility resources<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We understand the challenges of creating accessible documents and have two new resources available to assist you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Create, distribute, and maintain accessible documents<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We’ve published a manual with tips and resources for building accessibility into your document creation process. Use these tips for your next project to create a more accessible document.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Document accessibility review form<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

In addition to following the steps to create an accessible document, the OIT Web Accessibility Team can perform an accessibility review prior to your document being published online. Review times may vary depending on how complex the document is, so plan ahead accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reorganized accessibility resources<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There is a wealth of information and available on Webguide about accessibility. However, over time they became a bit disorganized. We’ve given the pages a refresh and hope the content is now easier to find and use!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
