How to Choose an AODA Compliance Consultant
Before engaging a consultant, ask how accessibility testing is performed, which standards and success criteria are used, whether manual testing is included, how findings are documented, whether assistive technology is considered, and how remediation is verified through retesting.
A strong engagement should produce clear priorities, reproducible evidence, practical remediation guidance and a process for validating improvements.
Ontario AODA and Broader Canadian Accessibility Needs
AODA requirements are specific to Ontario, while organizations may also need to consider other Canadian accessibility requirements and standards depending on their jurisdiction, sector, size and circumstances.
An effective consulting process should clearly distinguish legal obligations from technical accessibility best practices and explain which requirements apply to the organization being assessed.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I hire an AODA consultant?
Start by defining the website, application or digital assets in scope. Then request the consultant’s testing methodology, standards used, deliverables, remediation process and relevant accessibility experience.
Should an AODA consultant use automated tools?
Yes. Automated scanners can identify certain recurring accessibility issues, but automated testing should be combined with manual review, keyboard testing, semantic checks and other appropriate accessibility evaluation methods.
Can a consultant help with remediation?
Yes. Depending on the engagement, a consultant can help prioritize findings, guide developers and content teams, review fixes, conduct retesting and support an ongoing accessibility governance process.
