IAAP CAP study plan

Define the social, medical, and functional models of disability and give one workplace example of each

Distinguish impairment, activity limitation, and participation restriction using the WHO framing

Explain the seven Principles of Universal Design and map each to a digital or built-environment example

Build a one-page timeline of the major accessibility laws and standards (ADA, Section 508, WCAG 2.x, EN 301 549, CRPD, AODA) with enactment dates and scope

Identify which laws apply to a private employer, a federal agency, and a public university in a scenario you write yourself

Differentiate conformance levels A, AA, and AAA and state which level each major regulation or policy typically requires

Explain the WCAG four principles (Perceivable, Operable, Understandable, Robust) and place three sample success criteria under each

Describe the role of accessibility statements, remediation timelines, and reasonable-accommodation processes in policy compliance

Explain how WCAG success criteria map to EN 301 549 clauses and to Section 508 requirements

List the four POUR-aligned categories of assistive technology compatibility (keyboard, screen reader, magnification, speech input) and note which success criteria each depends on

Diagnose common semantic HTML failures (missing landmarks, improper heading order, div-only buttons) and write the corrected markup

Specify accessible names, roles, and states for custom widgets (tabs, modal dialogs, comboboxes) using ARIA authoring practices

Explain focus management requirements for single-page route changes, modals, and skip links

Identify contrast, reflow, text-spacing, and target-size failure conditions numerically

Describe mobile accessibility constraints: touch target sizing, gesture alternatives, platform screen-reader APIs, and orientation lock

Explain the accessibility-object model on at least one mobile platform and how it differs from DOM accessibility

Describe how accessibility defects enter the software lifecycle and place a checkpoint at each phase (design, build, test, release)

Draft acceptance criteria language that a development team could paste into a user story

Draft procurement language requiring a VPAT/ACR, WCAG 2.2 AA conformance, and a remediation plan as bid conditions

Explain how to evaluate an Accessibility Conformance Report and flag vague or unsupported claims

Define the roles of an accessibility program owner, an accessibility champion network, and an executive sponsor

Build a maturity model with four stages and place an example organization at each stage with justification

Write three program KPIs and one remediation SLA that are measurable and auditable

Describe how to triage an accessibility defect backlog by severity, user impact, and legal exposure

Explain the built-environment elements of accessible routes, parking, entrances, and restrooms with the governing dimensions and clearances

Describe accessible wayfinding, signage, and emergency egress considerations for people with sensory and mobility disabilities

Tag a document with headings, lists, table headers, alt text, and reading order so it passes a structural accessibility check

Explain PDF remediation workflow from source document to tagged PDF, including when to remediate versus re-author

Write captioning, audio description, and transcript requirements for pre-recorded and live media, including accuracy targets

Describe how screen readers traverse a document versus a web page and name the resulting authoring pitfalls

Match assistive technology categories (screen reader, magnifier, switch access, eye gaze, refreshable braille, speech recognition) to the interaction tasks they support

Explain how input modality choice, keyboard traps, and time limits affect users of assistive technology

Design a usability test with participants with disabilities covering recruitment, consent, compensation, and accommodation of the test logistics

Distinguish automated, manual, and assistive-technology testing and state what each can and cannot detect

Write a test script for keyboard-only and screen-reader-only task flows with pass/fail criteria

Draft a 30-minute accessibility awareness training outline with measurable learning objectives

Write a communication plan for announcing an accessibility program, including channels, cadence, and stakeholder-specific messaging

Re-derive the domain weightings and allocate remaining study time to your two lowest mock-exam scores

Complete two full-length timed practice sets and log every missed item by domain and by failure reason

Re-teach your three weakest concepts aloud or in writing without notes

Consolidate all deliverables into a single indexed reference binder with a one-page quick-reference summary

Rehearse the most common scenario question pattern: given a situation, name the applicable law, the success criterion, and the first corrective action
