In the past, when clients turned on the Base Navigation, there was no link to the accessibility information. Now, all users can access the accessibility link for Blackboard Learn on the login page and anytime after logging in. The links direct users to our Help Center. On the Help site, users can find the following information about the accessibility statement, standard, and information needed to best navigate key features of Blackboard Learn Ultra:
- Accessibility statement
- Accessibility standards in use
- Navigating key features and tools using assistive technologies
On the default login page, the Accessibility link appears below the login area. After logging in, the Accessibility link appears at the bottom of the Base Navigation menu.

Legacy Navigation already includes an accessibility disclosure link on the login page. There is no change with this release.
For administrators: This feature is available for all environments with Base Navigation enabled. If a custom login page is used, it may be necessary to update it. The updated login page template can be downloaded in “Admin Panel > Brands.” Create or edit a brand and select the button "Download Template."
