Accessibility Statement

Last Reviewed: March 2026

Our Commitment

We strive to make rbtexampractice.org accessible to all users, including those with disabilities. We are committed to providing an inclusive experience for everyone preparing for the RBT certification exam.

Our conformance target is WCAG 2.1 Level AA (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines). We continuously work to improve the accessibility of this site and welcome feedback from all users.

Accessibility Features

Keyboard Navigation

This site is fully navigable by keyboard. The following shortcuts are available throughout the site:

  • Alt+M — Jump to the main navigation menu
  • Alt+N — Go to the next question during a quiz
  • Alt+S — Skip the current question during a quiz

Skip Links

Skip links are provided at the top of every page to allow keyboard and screen reader users to bypass repetitive navigation and jump directly to:

  • Main content
  • Navigation

Screen Reader Support

Pages are structured with screen reader users in mind:

  • ARIA labels and roles on all interactive and landmark elements
  • ARIA live regions announce quiz feedback and dynamic content changes
  • Descriptive alt text on all meaningful images
  • Logical reading order that matches visual layout

Visual Preferences

  • Dark mode — Available via the toggle in the header; automatically follows your system preference
  • Reduced motion — Animations are suppressed when the prefers-reduced-motion media query is active
  • High contrast — Enhanced contrast ratios are applied when prefers-contrast: high is detected

Touch and Pointer Targets

  • All interactive elements meet a minimum 44×44px touch target size
  • Sufficient spacing between clickable elements to reduce accidental activation

Focus Management

  • Visible focus indicators on all interactive elements
  • Focus is managed programmatically when dialogs open or page sections change

Semantic Structure

  • Semantic HTML5 elements (header, nav, main, footer, article, section)
  • Proper heading hierarchy (H1 → H2 → H3) on every page
  • Form inputs have associated labels
  • Colour is never the sole means of conveying information

Known Limitations

While we aim for full WCAG 2.1 AA conformance, the following limitations currently exist:

  • JavaScript dependency: Quiz interactions require JavaScript to function. Users without JavaScript will see a notice explaining this requirement.
  • Timed exams: Full practice exams include an optional countdown timer. Users who need additional time can disable the timer before starting an exam or use untimed sectional quizzes instead.

We are actively working to address these limitations in future updates.
