The following is a list of Accessibility improvements being made in the February 2024 release:

Keyboard focus / Interactive elements    

Interactive elements have been made entirely compatible with a keyboard. Improvements made:       

• Keyboard focus is no longer trapped - Dashboards

• Interactive elements have visible focus indicator - Resource Centre
• EPAPro settings: keyboard navigation no longer stuck on 'Clear' button of Connections filter 
• Correct mouse/keyboard focus in Learning Plan Screen

Interactive elements need a programmatically determined name, role, and value. These properties must also be accurate and appropriate. Improvements made:     

• Table uses grid semantics appropriately - Learners Grid
• Table header tags used appropriately - Signatures Grid
• Colour no longer solely relied upon to communicate information - Tasks
• Progress bar has been programmatically declared - Dashboards
• Table header tags used appropriately - Reg & Certs Grid
• Error messages that appear on submission now have programmatic call-to-action - File Uploader
• Progress bar now programmatically declared - Onboarding Steps
• Menu semantics used appropriately on dropdown - Reg & Certs Grid
• No longer missing or malformed ARIA on collapsible listbox - Learners Grid
• No longer missing or malformed ARIA on collapsible listbox - Skills Radar
• Current page is programmatically identified - Onboarding Steps

Contrast 

When components have custom focus indication, such as a custom ‘outline’, the indication must pass colour contrast requirements with adjacent colours. Improvement made:    

• Sufficient contrast for the interactive elements – Settings
