About us
AccessibilityOz is the largest web accessibility consultancy in Australia with recent expansion into the United States market. Headquartered in Melbourne, Victoria, the firm has operated in the United States since July 2015 and has offices in New York, NY. Gian Wild, the founder and Chief Executive Officer, has worked on the accessibility of hundreds of web sites and applications since 1998 and spent six years with the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines Working Group contributing to WCAG 2.0. AccessibilityOz offers a range of accessibility products and services to companies, non-profits, Government agencies, and colleges and universities around the world. The AccessibilityOz team has developed innovative tools for enhanced web testing and accessibility including: OzART, an automated testing tool that performs site-wide searches for accessibility defects by category and language, easy for beginning and advanced users. OzART is comprehensive and finds more accessibility and usability issues than any other automated system on the market. It is a great tool to help clients comply to Section 508 and WCAG 2.0 Standards. OzWiki provides best known methods to achieve A, AA & AAA level design and interaction for web content. These outlined errors, examples and solutions demonstrate associated WCAG 2.0 success criteria and techniques. Developers may subscribe monthly or yearly as they learn to incorporate accessibility into their design. OzPlayer is a plugin that plays back video hosted on websites and third party platforms such as YouTube and Vimeo. OzPlayer does not have keyboard traps, supports captions and audio descriptions and has a unique system for providing a moving transcript. AccessibilityOz has conducted hundreds of audits, remediation, training sessions and seminars in Australia and in the United States.

Check out our article by Rafal Charlampowicz on guide robots. Will they replace guide dogs? And should they? (We don’t belief in clickbait so the answers are maybe and maybe 😊)
This article, published at AccessibilityOz blog, is aimed at designers of guide robots and people who are interested in some details of guide dogs' work. I consider it very important. I hope it will be useful. Sometimes designers try to achieve too much whereas less is needed. #guiderobot #guiding #blindness #guidedog #assistivetechnology https://lnkd.in/dCi8phCv

Last week at the IAAPA Vietnam Summit I shared this video. As someone with no lived experience of disability, I felt it was important that I gained feedback and insights from those who do. If you are looking for people to help you in accessibility & inclusion, here are some of the great people/ organizations I’ve come across (just to name a few, there are many more!): GetAboutAble KultureCity Melissa James Ryan Smith DLI International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards (IBCCES) Travel Without Limits Cérge Vacayit AccessibilityOz Kerry Williams (Feel free to add more in the comments I’ve missed!) Thank you again to the people in this video who shared their advice and experience. Julie Jones Beau Vernon Belinda Harris Jeff Rotmeyer Kelvin Spiller OAM Allison Zuck, AIA https://lnkd.in/g7SXSShz
