Cvent, an industry leading meetings, events, and hospitality
technology provider, is helping to advance accessibility for the
event industry by completing Voluntary Product Accessibility
Templates (VPAT®) for several of its event management
solutions.
VPATs contain details about the accessibility features of a
product or technology and are considered the industry standard for
customers and stakeholders looking to prioritize solutions that
meet the highest levels of accessibility compliance.
“Events, at their core, are all about bringing people together,
but this is only possible when the experience (and supporting
technology) are accessible to all,” said David Quattrone, Cvent
Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer. “To maintain transparency
and accountability, we have engaged a third-party firm to
meticulously document the accessibility features of our most widely
used solutions. With over 21,000 global customers and millions of
event registrants around the world using Cvent technology each
year, Cvent is committed to staying up to date on accessibility
standards – and we’ve taken active steps to make this a
priority.”
Cvent’s VPATs measure compliance against WCAG 2.1 AA standards,
which are guidelines that measure usability for people with
disabilities. Keeping up to date with this documentation is a
crucial component of Cvent’s larger accessibility efforts, which
include robust internal employee training programs and product
development planning.
Currently, Cvent has completed VPATs for the following
products:
- Event Registration
- Attendee Hub (Web and mobile app, iOS and Android)
- Interactive floor plans within its Event Diagramming
product
Additionally, VPATs for other Cvent products, including Cvent
Webinar and OnArrival, are currently in development. The Company is
actively working towards VPAT completion across its entire event
management & marketing platform.
Furthering the Company’s accessibility efforts, Cvent is hosting
a webinar today, May 18, at 11:00am, Accessibility and Event
Technology: A Beginner’s Guide, in honor of Global Accessibility
Awareness Day. This special, two-hour event will help break down
the essential aspects of accessibility and explain how event
planners and marketers can create events that are more inclusive
and accessible.
Those who are interested in reviewing Cvent’s VPAT documents can
reach out to their dedicated account team (Cvent customers) or
