Web Site Accessibility (WCAG)

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) is developed through the W3C process in cooperation with individuals and organizations around the world, with a goal of providing a single shared standard for web content accessibility that meets the needs of individuals, organizations, and governments internationally.

The WCAG documents explain how to make web content more accessible to people with disabilities. Web "content" generally refers to the information in a web page or web application, including:

  • natural information such as text, images, and sounds
  • code or markup that defines structure, presentation, etc.

All external TAM pages (those accessible to an applicant) are compliant with WCAG 2.0 based on testing models provided by AChecker. There are several testing models available, with no agreed upon standard, so we cannot guarantee that TAM complies with all checkers currently available.

Running AChecker on a client's careers page or an individual job page may result in failures if the client has inserted images using TAM's text editor. We have no way to guarantee that a client's content is compliant, we can only guarantee that TAM-created web pages are compliant.

Once there is a standard WCAG method TAM will make all attempts to comply with that standard.
