A great resource! Examples in the scoring items assist in user understanding. I like that the excel sheet summarizes scores and provides both an accessibility score and a usability score.

Both sections of the In-line EqTD AUDIT Excel spreadsheet appear to sufficiently address the necessary requirements for equivalent text descriptions. Moreover, the quantification of the demonstration of accessibility using percentages allows an effective measure of conformance to EqTD standards. Lastly, the .pdf manual provides thorough context and clear instructions on EqTDs which helps those unfamiliar with the topic become quickly acquainted with this measure and form of accessibility.

I found that this was a easy audit for someone to comprehend, as well as stacked with enough information with a good excel sheet to go along with the information.

Given the explosive growth in the use of the World Wide Web for publishing, electronic commerce, lifelong learning and the delivery of government services, it is vital that the Web be accessible to everyone.
