RNIB for Business - Service 6

Tried and Tested Accreditation

The RNIB Tried and Tested accreditation is an independent mark of confidence that shows your website, app or product has been put through rigorous real‑world accessibility testing by RNIB and people with sight loss.

The process for a website or app is to undergo a WCAG audit, then an expert usability assessment and the final stage is observed user testing with 12 to 15 blind and partially sighted individuals. Rechecks at each stage will confirm recommendations have been implemented before moving on to the next stage and to the accreditation after user testing.

Having the RNIB Tried and Tested accreditation helps you prove that your website or app has been rigorously tested by RNIB and found to be usable and accessible to many users with sight loss and builds trust with customers and stakeholders by demonstrating your commitment to inclusive design.
