HiSoftware
is an
industry
leader
in
developing
and
promoting
accessibility
standards.
We are
tightly
involved
in the
development
of
standards
and best
practices
for the
W3C’s
Accessible
Rich
Internet
Applications
(ARIA)
Working
Group
and
Microsoft’s
User
Interface
Automation
(UIA).
If your
organization
develops
highly-interactive
web or
software
solutions,
your
developers
can get
a head
start by
implementing
these
technologies. |
AT
Tester
Training
Instructor-led
Online
with
Onsite

QA and
IV&V
teams
need to
know
that
applications
are
properly
tested
and meet
customer
requirements.
For
instance,
government
is
increasingly
focused
on
Section
508 and
your
product’s
failure
to fully
comply
with the
Section
508
standards
can mean
lost
sales.
At the
same
time,
testing
with
assistive
technology
for
compliance
is often
difficult
for even
the best
of
testers
unless
they
have
years of
experience
using AT
on a
daily
basis.
Your
organization
can
leverage
our
tester’s
experience
by
having
one of
our
senior
testers
leads
your QA
and IV&V
teams
through
one of
our
training
courses
focused
on AT
training.
Although
testing
may not
seem
like an
exciting
subject,
our
trainers
have
made
this one
of our
most
popular
courses. |
