Accessibility for Certification

Rick Hensen Foundation Accessibility Certification  (RHFAC)

Visit Website

Rick Hansen Foundation Accessibility Certification™ (RHFAC) is a rating system that measures the accessibility of buildings and Sites. It promotes increased access through the adoption of Universal Design principles. 

RHFAC is the first program of its kind to:

  • Measure the level of meaningful access of a Site, based on the holistic user experience of people with varying disabilities affecting mobility, vision, and hearing.
     

  • Qualify trained professionals to conduct RHFAC ratings through the RHFAC Professional designation  
    Recognize an organization’s commitment to accessibility through certification of their Sites as either Rick Hansen Foundation Accessibility Certified or Rick Hansen Foundation Accessibility Certified Gold 

Getting rated will position your organization as a leader in building a sustainable Canada that’s accessible for all. (Reference: Rick Hansen Foundation)
