AODA Compliance Website Audit for Higher Education in Canada

Who this is for

Higher Education IT Directors

You oversee multi-platform websites facing constant regulatory scrutiny—missing AODA compliance risks fines, reputational damage, and procurement blocks.

Procurement & Compliance Officers

You’re tasked with proving due diligence during audits and RFPs. Web accessibility failures can threaten funding, trigger external review, and invite public criticism.

Web Content & UX Managers

You roll out new content and features faster than ever. Proactive accessibility checks mean fewer crisis patch jobs and smoother digital operations.

Manual and Automated Accessibility Testing

Senior DoodleWeb engineers pair hands-on review with advanced scanning tools to uncover keyboard, screen reader, and usability barriers that pure automation misses.

Complete Issue List and Stepwise Remediation Plan

Your report details every AODA/WCAG failure, pinpoints root causes, and ranks each fix by impact—so you know exactly where to act first.

Executive Summary in Plain Language

Non-technical leaders receive a concise rundown on compliance status and next steps—ready for board meetings, funding applications, or policy review.

Optional Remediation by Senior Engineers

Need practical help? DoodleWeb’s experienced team corrects barriers directly—on Drupal, WordPress, Webflow, React, or custom platforms—never outsourced or juniorized.

Which accessibility standards and website platforms should be considered in an AODA audit?

Three options to compare are Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), WAVE Web Accessibility Evaluation Tool and axe Accessibility Engine.

  • Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) — An international accessibility standard that defines testable success criteria for digital content; it is a standards-based framework, not a software product.
  • WAVE Web Accessibility Evaluation Tool — A web accessibility evaluation tool that surfaces common issues in pages; it combines automated detection with visual feedback.
  • axe Accessibility Engine — An accessibility testing engine used in browser, CI, and testing workflows; it is a developer-focused automated tool rather than a full audit method.
  • Lighthouse — An open source web auditing tool built into Chrome DevTools that can report accessibility signals alongside performance and other checks.
  • Drupal — An open source content management system often used for institutional websites; it is platform-based and can be extended with accessibility-focused themes and modules.
  • WordPress — An open source content management system for building and managing websites; it is platform-based and typically relies on themes, plugins, and site-level practices for accessibility.
  • Webflow — A visual website building platform for designing and publishing sites; it is a hosted, design-led tool rather than an unstyled or headless framework.

What clients say
