Built for every way teachers work.

Instructors work with a keyboard only, with a screen reader, with magnification, on a phone in a classroom. Rollbook Pro and this site are built to be usable by all of them.

Our standard

We design and test to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, and we commit to that standard in our agreements with colleges.

What that means in practice

• Every function works with the keyboard alone, including editing attendance rows, merging duplicates, and exporting.
• Every control has a visible focus indicator and an accessible name.
• Text and interface colors meet AA contrast ratios.
• Status is never conveyed by color alone; a label or text change accompanies it.
• Forms have programmatic labels and specific error messages.
• Data tables have captions and header associations for screen readers.
• Motion respects the reduce-motion setting in your operating system.
• Pages have a skip-to-content link and a logical heading structure.
• The interface works at 200% zoom and on small screens.

There is no separate accessibility mode or lite version. The one interface is the accessible interface.

How we check

Each screen is tested with automated tools (axe and Lighthouse, targeting a 100 accessibility score) and by hand with keyboard-only navigation and a screen reader before it ships. Accessibility is part of our definition of done, not a separate pass.

Known limitations

• Reading a paper sign-in sheet in Rollbook Pro uses your device's camera. The Teams export upload and manual entry produce the same result without it.
• The ADVANSYS bookmarklet runs inside the ADVANSYS website, whose accessibility we do not control.
• Rollbook Pro has not yet been audited by an independent accessibility firm. We will arrange one when a college requires it.

Conformance report

A Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT 2.5, WCAG edition) for Rollbook Pro is available to colleges evaluating the product. Request it at the address below.
