Conformance evaluation of Web accessibility requires a combination of semi-automated evaluation tools and manual evaluation by an experienced reviewer. Sacramento State uses HiSoftware Compliance Sheriff for automated scans and a variety of tools and techniques to manually review websites.
The Web site may have changed since that time. Additional information on the evaluation process is available in Evaluating Web Sites for Accessibility.
