Compliance

AAP Online CME is designed to meet the regulations governing the accessibility of Federal electronic information products (Section 508). This design also conforms to the access guidelines developed by the Web Accessibility Initiative of the World Wide Web Consortium, in that provisions are made to assure access for those individuals with vision impairments. To ensure this capability, AAP Online CME does not incorporate frames, style sheets, multimedia presentations, user applets, or plug-ins, bypassing many of the issues outlined in Section 508. The program primarily consists of text to ensure fast downloads for those individuals with slow Internet connections. Where graphic images apply, the HTML "Alt Text" tag is utilized as a text descriptor to facilitate those individuals who may be using screen readers or other assisting devices.
