Certification
U.S. Department of Homeland Security

Trusted Tester

2024

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS)  Trusted Tester Certification demonstrates expertise in Section 508 compliance testing using the official federal government methodology, which is critical for instructional designers creating content for government agencies or organizations that must meet accessibility standards. This certification validates an instructional designer’s ability to identify and remediate accessibility barriers in digital learning content, ensuring courses are usable by learners with disabilities and legally compliant. Holding this certification distinguishes instructional designers in the marketplace, as it proves they can design accessible learning experiences from the start rather than retrofitting content later, saving significant time and cost while expanding learner reach.
