Are you ready for the European Accessibility Act?
The European Accessibility Act requires that digital products and services, including teaching and learning websites, apps, e-books and resources, meet accessibility standards for people with disabilities. Unless you are a small business, you must comply with the EAA to continue selling to customers in the EU. The deadline for compliance is 28th June 2025.
With almost 20 years of experience in creating both printed and digital learning materials, Haremi understands how important it is to make educational content accessible to everyone. The great news is that if you already follow the WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines), you're already on the right track for the European Accessibility Act, as these guidelines are its foundation.
