What you need to know about WCAG 3.0
Description
Join Passion4Social for this 60-minute interactive webinar as we explore the next evolution of digital accessibility standards: WCAG 3.0.
Although it is still in development, it has already introduced new concepts, frameworks, and approaches that will shape the future of accessibility compliance and inclusive design. Understanding these changes now will help organisations prepare for what’s coming — and adapt with confidence.
In this session, we will explore the key differences between WCAG 2 and WCAG 3.0, including the move from pass/fail success criteria to more flexible outcome-based scoring, the introduction of functional categories, and new approaches to testing that better reflect authentic user experiences.
We will also look at practical ways to assess your website’s accessibility using a combination of tools, techniques, and user-centred approaches.
We aim to make this webinar as accessible as possible. If you have any access requirements or preferences, please let us know when registering.
On the day, we will cover:
What WCAG 3.0 is and how it differs from previous versions
The shift from success criteria to outcomes and methods
How the new scoring system works (Bronze, Silver, Gold)
The role of automated and holistic testing approaches
How to assess website accessibility using practical tools and techniques
Steps your organisation can take now to prepare for future compliance
