Confirm that all interactive elements, such as buttons and touch targets, are accessible and functional on different devices.

Provide captions for videos and transcripts for audio files to ensure that content is accessible to users who are deaf or hard of hearing.

Menu items, buttons, and interactive elements should appear in the same place and function the same way throughout the course.

Include progress bars or section headers so learners can track their progress easily.

Use action-oriented labels (e.g., “Next Section”) instead of vague ones like “Click here.” This improves clarity and reduces confusion.

Make sure that the tab order follows a logical sequence, particularly when navigating via keyboard. Use a focus outline for visibility.

Ensure that users can easily recover from mistakes in quizzes or forms without losing their progress.

Provide a help button or resource link on every screen so users can find assistance if needed.

Include alt text only for images that provide information or context. Decorative elements should be marked as decorative. https://wave.webaim.org/

Use a contrast checker like WebAIM’s Contrast Checker to ensure sufficient contrast between text and background colors.

Users should be able to navigate the entire course using just a keyboard. Make sure all interactive elements are accessible. Keyboard Accessibility

Ensure that headings are properly nested (e.g., H1 > H2 > H3) to help screen readers navigate the content.

Test the course with screen readers like NVDA or JAWS to ensure content is accessible. Download NVDA

Use text or icons in addition to color to ensure that learners who are colorblind can still access the content.

Review all text carefully to eliminate spelling and grammatical errors. Use spell-check tools and have a colleague or professional editor review the content to catch any overlooked mistakes.

Ensure that every link directs to the correct destination and functions properly. Double-check that external links open in new tabs and are not broken or outdated.

Review all images, videos, and audio files for proper resolution and quality. Ensure that media formats are compatible across devices and browsers, and that no file is pixelated or distorted.

Go through all assessments to confirm that scoring mechanisms work correctly and feedback is appropriate for each response. Verify that correct answers are highlighted and feedback messages are clear and relevant.

Ensure that terminology is consistent throughout the course, including within text, quizzes, and multimedia. Check that fonts, text sizes, and formatting styles are uniform across all pages and slides.

Review all instructional content to ensure that facts, data, and examples are accurate and up to date. Confirm that the information is relevant to the course objectives and meets the learners' needs, making adjustments if necessary to align with current best practices.

Verify that all multimedia, including images, videos, and audio, have appropriate attributions or licenses stated clearly. Ensure that any third-party content adheres to copyright laws and licensing agreements.

Ensure that all pages and multimedia elements load quickly, especially on mobile devices.

Test drag-and-drop, quizzes, and clickable areas to ensure they work correctly across all devices.

Test the course in multiple browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) to ensure consistent performance. App and Browser Testing

Media players should have keyboard-accessible controls and provide options to pause, stop, and restart videos.

If using an LMS, verify that the course packages (e.g., SCORM) work correctly within the system. Ensure tracking and reporting features are functional.

Ensure the course layout adapts smoothly on different screen sizes, from desktop to mobile.

Verify that learners can pause and resume the course without losing their progress.
