Usability Testers with Disabilities

WeCo hand-selects, trains and manages a team of disability-focused usability Testers who receive our exclusive training.  Experts are living with one or more disability when they come to us, our training makes them uniquely qualified to advise you on their unique digital usability needs.

WeCo Usability Testers excel at using assistive technology, such as Braille laptops (shown at left),  screen readers and magnifiers, speech recognition software, modified mouses and more (when their given disability requires such device use.)

Upon successfully completing WeCo certification training, each Usability Tester earns the title of “Certified Test Consultant” or “CTC.”  They are then welcomed into our Certified Test Team.

WeCo’s Certified Team of Testers includes individuals who live with the four primary types of disabilities, which may impact computer use and are recognized by the US Government:

  • Cognitive: including, but not limited to, Autism, Attention Deficit Disorder, clinical depression, psychiatric and memory disorders.
  • Hearing: hard-of-hearing and deafness.
  • Mobility: including, but not limited to, spinal cord injuries, Arthritis, Multiple Sclerosis and Cerebral Palsy.
  • Sight: blindness and low-vision.
