RUSTICI SOFTWARE ACCESSIBILITY CONFORMANCE REPORT

REVISED SECTION 508 EDITION

(Based on VPAT® Version 2.4)

Name of Product/Version:

Rustici Engine v24 (Learner interface only)

Report Date:

Jan 2026

Product Description:

Rustici Engine integrates directly into your application to manage import and launch of SCORM, xAPI, cmi5, LTI and AICC content.

Contact Information:

Please direct inquiries about Rustici Engine’s accessibility features to support@rusticisoftware.com.

Notes:

This report covers only the learner-visible interfaces of the Rustici Engine application, which are:

  • player navigation controls for multi-SCO SCORM content
  • informative pages shown when a course cannot be delivered, either due to customer-configured limits or an error;
  • page selection and zoom controls for PDF courses;
  • playback controls for MP4 video and MP3 audio courses provided by native browser HTML elements.

Customers may change the appearance of these interfaces, which may impact their accessibility. This report covers only their default appearance as delivered by Rustici Software.

The majority of a typical learner’s interaction with Rustici Engine is with customer-provided content, not with any user interfaces provided by Rustici Engine. Ensuring the accessibility of customer-provided content is the responsibility of the customer.

Evaluation Methods Used:

We test Rustici Engine’s learner interfaces with existing product knowledge, web browsers (including automated audits with Chrome Lighthouse), and assistive technologies, such as screen readers.
