Accessibility

Accessibility at CRC Cloud

We want every visitor — regardless of ability or assistive technology — to be able to read, navigate, and act on this site. That's both an ADA-era obligation and plain good engineering.

Our conformance target

We build and maintain this site to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA — the standard commonly referenced for ADA Title III website accessibility. Accessibility is checked as part of every release, not as a one-time audit.

Being precise about what that claim is worth: we test our own work against that standard, and this site has not been audited or certified by an independent third party. We describe it as a target we hold ourselves to rather than a certification, because that is what it is. Where we know we fall short, we say so under Known limitations — and if you hit something we haven't listed, tell us and we'll fix it.

Measures built into this site

  • Keyboard operability: every menu, accordion, calculator, and video control works without a mouse, with a visible focus indicator and a skip-to-content link on every page.
  • Screen-reader structure: semantic landmarks, one H1 per page, labeled navigation regions, ARIA labels on interactive components, and descriptive alt text on informative images (decorative art is hidden from assistive technology).
  • Readable by design: color pairings tuned for WCAG contrast in both the light and dark themes, text that scales with browser settings, and no information conveyed by color alone.
  • Motion respect: every animation on this site honors your operating system's reduced-motion preference — turn it on and the site goes still without losing content.
  • Forms and errors: labeled inputs, clear error messaging, and no time limits.
  • Media: videos never autoplay and load only when you choose to play them; captions are available through the YouTube player controls.
  • Assistive display options: the site also offers an accessiBe widget (bottom-left corner) with adjustable text size, contrast, spacing, and reading aids. It sits on top of the measures built into the pages themselves — the accessibility of this site comes from how the pages are built, not from the widget, and we don’t treat any overlay tool as a substitute for that work.

Known limitations

Some embedded third-party experiences — the YouTube video player and the Microsoft Bookings scheduling page — are controlled by their vendors, and their internal accessibility is outside our direct control. If any embedded content blocks you, contact us and we'll complete your request another way, including by phone.

The heritage archive is the other one, and we would rather name it than let you find it. Those roughly twenty documents — catalogs, newspaper pages and course listings printed between 1986 and 2000 — are photographic scans of paper. They carry no text layer, which means a screen reader cannot read them and neither can a search engine. We have kept them as scans on purpose: the point of that page is the document itself, marks and all. If you want the contents of any of them, ask us and we will put that document into a readable form for you — we would rather do that than publish a rough machine transcription and call it accessible.

Feedback — and a promise

If anything on this site is difficult to perceive, operate, or understand with your setup, tell us and we'll fix it or provide the information in an accessible format:
