Moodle’s commitment to accessibility highlighted by addition of Brickfield Accessibility Toolkit to suite of Certified Integrations

October 18, 2021 By Moodle

Moodle announces the Brickfield Accessibility Toolkit as the newest Moodle LMS Certified Integration to improve accessibility, reduce barriers and maximise learning opportunities for all learners.

The Brickfield Accessibility Toolkit provides accessibility auditing and remediation of course content with an improved editing experience and an accessible file format creator. This enables organisations to find the issues in their Moodle LMS content, fix common issues using the Toolkit and future-proof their course experience. 

Sander Bangma, Head of Moodle LMS, says, “Accessibility is a constant focus in the development of Moodle. In 2020, Moodle LMS became WCAG 2.1 AA accredited which means Moodle conforms to the leading global accessibility standard, and is usable and understandable for the majority of people with or without disabilities. The way courses are set up in Moodle also affects their accessibility and this Certified Integration now provides educators and administrators who create courses and activities in Moodle a way to check the accessibility of those courses. It’s another great step forward in our commitment to accommodate individual differences in line with accessibility best practices.”

Set up in 2019, Brickfield Education Labs combines more than 50 years of experience delivering educational solutions, together with a passion for accessibility, inclusion, and great user experience.

“The last two years have seen a huge increase of interest from organisations wanting to improve the accessibility of their online courses. At Brickfield Education Labs, we are delighted that our Moodle Accessibility Toolkit has become a Moodle Certified Integration. We are excited to continue our support for Moodle using organisations, with our Premium and Enterprise offerings to help them Future proof their online courses,” says Gavin Henrick, Brickfield Education Labs CEO and Co-Founder.
