Helping make education for everyone
At Simple Higher Ed, our platforms are built to accessibility standards from the ground up. We design and test against WCAG 2.2, so the core experience supports assistive technology and consistent navigation for every learner.
On top of that foundation, we offer integrated tools that help institutions extend accessibility across courses at scale, from structured, accessible content publishing to course-level checks that surface common issues across LMS materials.
As expectations rise under regulations like Title II in the U.S. and comparable accessibility requirements worldwide, we stay focused on what matters most: making accessibility practical, repeatable, and measurable across the digital learning experience.
Audited with Level Access
We contract with Level Access, a market leader in digital accessibility, to help ensure our platform meets accessibility standards. Their team performs annual testing, and we use their automated scanning tools in our QA process to catch potential issues before they are released.
Accessible syllabus, built in
Simple Syllabus supports accessibility for the syllabus, one of your most public-facing course assets. It helps institutions publish syllabi in a structured, consistent format that supports WCAG 2.1 AA goals and works better with assistive technology than static files.
Coursewide accessibility
Simple Prep provides accessibility oversight across the full course experience. It scans LMS pages, files, media, and linked materials for common issues and surfaces results in a clear, course-level view.
Request a VPAT
We’re on a journey of ongoing enhancement, and transparency is key. Our Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT) provides a clear view of our progress and the steps we’re taking to reach our accessibility goals. Through both internal audits and collaborations with external experts, we ensure our platforms not only meet but exemplify the highest standards of accessibility.
