Accessibility SMEs with Disabilities

An Accessibility SME with a disability discussing a point with a group.We are Accessibility SME’s with disabilities.  We founded, and run our own business, bringing our expertise and life experience directly to you.

Digital professionals who are not window dressing, but the window through which our clients become accessible.

Why Accessibility SME’s with Disabilities?

Our clients seek our expertise based not only upon our digital educations, but also upon our life experiences of living with blindness, cognitive/neurodivergence, hearing and mobility disabilities.

WeCo’s Accessibility Testers and Specialists put their accessibility expertise to work, while leveraging their life experience of living with one or more disability.

Simulations, dashboards and widgets leave us out

Simulating disabilities on your own gives you a sense of what it’s like to live with a disability, but only when a person is newly disabled.  They don’t reflect the skill we gain living with our disabilities over time.

Dashboards may keep score on your accessibility, but they can’t provide you feedback on the WCAG criteria that require human input.

Widgets force us to learn a whole new set of software just to gain entry to your website.  They don’t allow us to use the technology we depend upon, like screen readers.  Most of us simply leave widget accessible websites without entering.

Let’s get together

Contact a WeCo Client Relations Specialist today, and let’s talk.  We’re interested in getting to know, your people and your project.
