We want students and instructors to be able to run a business simulation whatever their ability. This page is our accessibility statement: what the simulations conform to today, the few criteria still open, how they are tested and how to reach us when something blocks you.
| Standard | Included in report |
|---|---|
| WCAG 2.0 | Level A and AA |
| WCAG 2.1 | Level A and AA |
| WCAG 2.2 | Level A and AA |
| Revised Section 508 | Yes |
| EN 301 549 | V3.1.1 and V3.2.1 |
Hubro Business Simulation, the Hubro Marketing simulations and our other simulation products are partially conformant with WCAG 2.2 level AA.
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines define three levels of conformance: A, AA and AAA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content do not fully conform to the standard. Four of the Level A and AA success criteria in our conformance report are partially supported; the rest are supported or not applicable. All four are listed below.
Everything a procurement team or a disability services office needs to review the simulations.
The full report for Sage Hubro: every WCAG 2.2 Level A and AA success criterion, the functional performance criteria and the EN 301 549 chapters, each with the conformance level and the evaluator's remarks.

[email protected]The June 2026 report walks every WCAG 2.2 Level A and AA success criterion. All but four are recorded as supported or not applicable. This is what that covers.
All four are partial supports rather than failures: the rest of the product meets the criterion. Page titles, form labels, and name, role and value were open in earlier statements and are supported in this one. Tell us if one of these blocks you and we will prioritise it.
The conformance report is produced from six passes over the product, including screen reader testing by an evaluator who is legally blind.
An accessibility expert inspects every screen in Chrome with the WAVE and aXe toolbars, and reads the markup in browser developer tools.
The platform is navigated from end to end without a mouse, to find what mobility impaired users cannot reach.
Any audio content is checked for correct captioning for deaf and hard of hearing users.
Three passes: the magnification, palette and contrast controls of the operating system, font resizing in the browser, and Color Contrast Analyzer.
An evaluator who is legally blind works through the pages with JAWS and NVDA in Chrome, to find the barriers blind users actually meet.
Usability problems met during the passes above are recorded alongside the technical findings, whether or not a success criterion covers them.
We assess by both self-evaluation and external evaluation. The report has been updated in April 2024, September 2024, January 2025, October 2025 and June 2026.
The combinations the simulations are built and tested against.
The simulations are not designed for these, and we do not test them.
Accessibility relies on these technologies working with your browser and any assistive technology installed. They are relied upon for conformance with the standards used, WAI-ARIA included.
Hubro Simulations, part of Sage Publishing, takes these measures to keep the simulations accessible.
If you meet an accessibility barrier in one of our simulations, we want to hear about it. We try to respond within one business day.
Send us the questions from your accessibility or disability services team. We answer them against the conformance report and tell you exactly where the product stands.
