Build Capable is proud to announce that Build Capable XCL (“XCL”) has successfully passed rigorous accessibility testing, conducted in partnership with OLEB Media, a natural user accessibility testing company. XCL meets Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 AA standards, continuing our efforts to create inclusive and barrier-free digital learning experiences for all.
What is Build Capable XCL?
XCL is a patent-pending tool that redefines how learning experiences are delivered, tracked, and analyzed. XCL enables organizations to create persistent, shareable links and QR codes to digital content, from SCORM/xAPI packages to PDFs, videos, games, websites, and more. These Learning Links can be distributed anywhere: email, SMS, Teams, Sharepoint, Slack, LMSs, intranets, QR codes on physical products, or even printed materials.
When someone interacts with the Learning Link content, XCL instantly translates that activity into Experience API (xAPI) data and reports it to a learning record store (LRS).
What sets XCL apart is its simplicity, accessibility, and flexibility:
- No user accounts to manage
- No rigid platform requirements
- No per-user fees
- Accessible to assistive technologies such as screen readers
From global nonprofits distributing job aids to enterprises analyzing real-time training simulations, XCL offers a cost-effective, future-ready alternative to traditional learning platforms.
XCL: Designed for Accessibility
Accessibility has always been at the heart of Build Capable’s mission. As a leader in learner-centered design, we believe accessibility is a requirement, not an afterthought. This achievement reinforces our commitment to creating inclusive learning technologies that remove barriers for everyone, from XCL administrators creating Learning Links to individuals accessing content through them.
“Historically, the tools and platforms we use in learning and development have not been accessible. It’s time for that to change.” said Sarah Mercier, CEO of Build Capable. “XCL passing WCAG 2.1 AA standards validates our team’s commitment to accessibility and ensures our solutions are usable by everyone, including those who use assistive technologies.”
