== Tips for Auditing Online Conference Platforms ==

* Test not only the demo site, but also any widgets that will be embedded in a website.
** Widgets are a big area where accessibility is overlooked.
** Ask to have access to a live site with an active widget, or an embedded schedule, so you can test them for accessibility. 
* Have the previous year's information available during your testing phase to use as sample data. It'll give you a better view of how the software would support the type of conference you're hosting.

== Online Conference Platforms ==

This is a list of online conference platforms and their pages on accessibility (if it exists), as well as any conferences that have used it. Some platforms we have been able to test in the past, but most of the information we have is a year old. We don't endorse any single platform, as each conference has different needs.
