McGraw Hill Creates Accessible Experiences for Learners
“At McGraw Hill, we're committed to breaking down the barriers that stand in the way of students realizing their full potential.
Ensuring that our products are accessible to all learners is one of our top priorities, and is central to the design and development of every learning experience we provide.” – Simon Allen, McGraw Hill CEO
We seek to create learning materials that are accessible to all learners. McGraw Hill makes every effort to ensure that all new educational content and technology follows the WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) version 2.1 AA guidelines and best practices. Our internal product teams regularly engage with external experts and solicit user feedback to achieve this.
How we do it:
- Globally, we are deeply engaged with accessibility advocacy organizations to ensure that the software and content we produce is accessible and usable by all learners.
- We are committed to training every McGraw Hill employee on accessibility best practices. Accessibility is a core part of our design and development efforts across all aspects of our business.
- We partner across the education ecosystem to deliver solutions. We recognize that we need to work closely with all of our education partners as we progress towards our collective accessibility goal.
