Accessibility helps more people perceive, understand, and interact with your school and learning content. In this article, you'll learn how to set up and integrate accessiBe with LearnWorlds, what the integration can support, and what still needs to be reviewed separately.


For broader guidance on creating accessible learning experiences, visit the Accessibility Knowledge Center. You can also learn more about LearnWorlds' accessibility approach in this guide.


AccessiBe is a third-party accessibility solution that provides interface adjustments and automated accessibility features for websites.  Its accessWidget includes options for areas such as keyboard navigation, screen reader support, text and content adjustments, color adjustments, and motion settings.


The available profiles and controls are provided and maintained by accessiBe. For information about how accessWidget works and the accessibility standards it supports, refer to accessiBe's own documentation.


Available options
Seizure Safe profile
Keyboard Navigation Adjustments
Blind Users (Screen Reader)
Content Adjustments, e.g. Content Scaling, Highlight Links, Text Magnifier, Font Size and Spacing Adjustments, and Spacing Adjustments
Color Adjustments, e.g. Dark/Light/High Contrast
Orientation Adjustments e.g. Mute sound, Big Cursors, Stop Animations

User experience

Below, you can explore some use cases to see how this feature appears to users and how it can assist them.


 a. ADHD Friendly Profile: By enabling this option, distractions are reduced, making navigation easier and allowing users to read and focus on pages more effectively

b. Color and Content Adjustments: Users can choose to use a text magnifier, highlight text, or change the page contrast based on their needs.

 AccessiBeis supplementary and does not replace accessible content, configuration, or testing. Some content and experiences need to be reviewed separately because they are created or delivered outside the website interface. This includes
  • External Files: PDFs or other files uploaded as learning activities.
  • Embedded Content: Videos or Presentations embedded into course activities or pages.
  • Interactive Content: SCORM or HTML5 packages uploaded as learning activities.
  • Third-Party Integrations: External tools or content linked through LTI integrations (e.g., quizzes or activities hosted on other platforms).
  • Media with Effects: Videos or presentations with flashing images or complex animations.
