Good morning, everyone -
I was asked to review a Teams Post that's for a group of learners. Does anyone have any guidance on how to review these for accessibility/Section 508 compliance?
I opened NVDA and attempted to navigate the post and it will only read the title of the Post and not the actual content. When I click on one of the images include in the post, it opens and NVDA reads, "unknown" (so missing alt text?)
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Claire

Without knowing more specifics- there are a few different keyboard
shortcuts for Teams. You can use control-f6 to navigate via different
areas. When looking at a series of posts, try hitting the enter key to "go
into" the post to read the contents.
For additional info, Microsoft has instructions on using a screen reader
with teams
