EditMentor promotes equal access to education, especially for students with disabilities.

Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Section 508, WCAG 2.0 Level AA

EditMentor meets the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements listed in Section 508 for accessibility by sustaining WCAG 2.0 Level AA guidelines published by the World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C) Web Accessibility Initiative within our application.

We make our compliance claim within a publicly available statement summarizing the types of features and level of compliance achieved on our website by clicking the accessibility icon found on any page.

Voluntary Product Accessibility Template Statement (VPAT)

EditStock does not currently offer its customers a VPAT, which is a voluntary product assessment form. VPATs are not a certification of accessibility from the W3C or any other body, however they are sometimes a requirement for government contract.

If your school or government agency requires a VPAT from EditMentor, please contact us in our support channels, including in the live chat.

We're Constantly Improving our Accessibility

Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating, and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements.
