Our Commitment to Accessibility

Ensuring equal access to our website and programs

We are dedicated to creating an inclusive environment at Code Platoon where everyone, including individuals with disabilities, can fully access and benefit from our website and programs.

Website Accessibility

We are committed to making our website accessible to everyone, including those with disabilities. The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) define requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. Code Platoon is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 Level AA, meaning some parts of the content do not fully conform to the accessibility standard.


If you have difficulty accessing any part of our website, please contact us for assistance at accessibility@codeplatoon.org. We welcome your suggestions and comments as we engage in ongoing efforts to improve the accessibility and usability of our website.

We regularly evaluate our Chicago classroom for compliance with the ADA, applicable state and local laws, and international standards. In partnership with building management, we ensure that parking, ramps, walkways, entrances, elevators, and classrooms are accessible to all students and staff.


If you are having difficulty accessing our Chicago classroom, please contact us for assistance at accessibility@codeplatoon.org.
