Ucanss - Making accessibility sustainable: tools, practices and editorial culture

How do you maintain accessibility over the long term when there are so many contributors?

 

 

Even if we raise awareness and tighten the screws for 3 months, we're not immune 6 months later from the information having been forgotten. So this information, this awareness, these good accessibility practices, have to be in Jahia, and even in the components.

Objectives

Maintaining a high level of accessibility in a multi-contributor environment is a challenge. UCANSS therefore needed to be able to integrate accessibility into its contribution processes, and ideally directly into its CMS.

This case study highlights a pragmatic, reproducible approach to sustaining best practices beyond the compliance phase. By relying on tools that are accessible to non-technical profiles, UCANSS is reinforcing its culture of accessibility on a daily basis.

Solutions

To meet the challenge of web accessibility that stands the test of time as well as possible, UCANSS has taken steps to integrate accessibility into daily contribution practices, using the Jahia CMS:

  • Use of Helpers (UI Tooltips) to guide contribution
  • Implementation of Editor Hints and integrated quality control
  • Workflow settings adapted to user profiles
  • Customized editing components (ColorPicker, fixed fields, etc.)
