UWM has produced a significant number of dashboards, and it is important to ensure that each one is digitally accessible. The following guidance will help you determine how to prioritize and manage this work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prioritizing Dashboard Accessibility Updates<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Public-facing dashboards<\/strong> \u2013\u00a0Begin with any dashboards that are available to the public. These represent the highest level of visibility and therefore the greatest need for accessibility compliance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Dashboards shared broadly<\/strong> \u2013\u00a0Next, focus on dashboards that are shared with individuals or groups who may redistribute them widely or make them public-facing in the future.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Internal, limited-access dashboards<\/strong> \u2013\u00a0Dashboards shared only among a small number of internal staff can be addressed after the higher priority categories above.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Becoming Familiar With Accessibility Features<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
