The MIC Web Portal upgrade is one of cooperative programs between MIC and VNAH. Earlier, MIC Web Portal, met several standards to support people with disabilities in the form of self- implementation or available functions in the program, non- compliance or partial compliance with criteria of WCAG 1.0 standards (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines Version 1.0). A contract was signed on supporting MIC’s Portal upgrade to assist people with disabilities in accessing and using easily.
At present, MIC Web Portal met the WCAG 1.0 standards and 152/346 WCAG 2.0 standards were met, accounting for 40%. Some of outstanding functions were fulfilled namely, text zoom, text to speech etc. The rest of WCAG 2.0 standards will be achieved in the coming days.
