Description

Find Digital Accessibility in Agile on the Knowbility Learning Center

Wells Fargo introduced their accessibility transformation program in 2020 to champion the principle’s of universal design and development, and help public-facing properties comply to corporate policy and WCAG standards. This program ensures that UI facing scrum teams can successfully and consistently incorporate accessibility into their daily work, reducing the potential for defects prior to release when defect discovery is costly. Teams employing this strategy have seen immediate impacts, with fewer defects and reduced rework. These best practices can be utilized broadly across industries to create accessible experiences for customers and employees.
