Hi Kara,



I attended a Section 508 training from Access Board. Attached is part of the powerpoint provided that may help. I have found the information invaluable that may help you.

Subject: [Athen] WCAG 2.0 vs 508 Refresh Mapping



Hello,



I know there were areas where we could all find or create a mapping between the old Seciton 508 standards and WCAG 2.0.



However, with the Section 508 Refresh now in place using WCAG and 255, does anyone know where someone may have already battled mapping the new standards to WCAG to show the comparison?  I like to use this as a visual when working with vendors and when we report out on our findings.  That way regardless of what standard the vendor is stating they are using they can see how it measures across the board.



I use the Microassist<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.microassist.com_digital-2Daccessibility_section-2D508-2Dand-2Dwcag_&d=DwMFaQ&c=oqyuZuih6ykib6aKiBq22_bich4AVfYGoLertJN0bEc&r=NHvpg0afcXz0YptN03jGT3Rou8lFF5RJUI0PLonXzoM&m=TQY26VIYzp5UP0yqUgEnqte7oLyDa8UKdRt3PszDJto&s=Hdg7f9ZGlU6eEVNWbPTsMwlW5RA5h4QCWaqQQr826Rc&e=> page but it doesn't show a true mapping.



I'm looking for something more like what Access Board<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.access-2Dboard.gov_guidelines-2Dand-2Dstandards_communications-2Dand-2Dit_about-2Dthe-2Dict-2Drefresh_background_comparison-2Dtable-2Dof-2Dwcag2-2Dto-2Dexisting-2D508-2Dstandards&d=DwMFaQ&c=oqyuZuih6ykib6aKiBq22_bich4AVfYGoLertJN0bEc&r=NHvpg0afcXz0YptN03jGT3Rou8lFF5RJUI0PLonXzoM&m=TQY26VIYzp5UP0yqUgEnqte7oLyDa8UKdRt3PszDJto&s=8Ty5CefSb-rHvob-o4T69OmjHcLjj7ICSjiCqCqtZRk&e=> or TomJewett's<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.tomjewett.com_accessibility_508-2DWCAG2.html&d=DwMFaQ&c=oqyuZuih6ykib6aKiBq22_bich4AVfYGoLertJN0bEc&r=NHvpg0afcXz0YptN03jGT3Rou8lFF5RJUI0PLonXzoM&m=TQY26VIYzp5UP0yqUgEnqte7oLyDa8UKdRt3PszDJto&s=fxCxDzPlCBwDEhR0oimoKj69s0f5UWTCp4hoJIhLdQo&e=> site showed.
