Accessibility Statement
At CareerViewXR, our goal is to empower every student and adult career seeker, no matter their age, location, background, or abilities to be able to explore the growing library of career experiences available on our platform.
We are aware of commonly accepted standards of digital accessibility, including Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), and strive to have our product meet these standards when the underlying technology allows. Our primary accessibility challenge stems from the fact that there are currently no industry accessibility standards for virtual reality or WebXR, the framework on which virtual reality content can be accessed via the web. We intend to follow leading groups’ best practices and are actively involved in industry conversations with regard to WebXR and VR, working to proactively address known accessibility issues with these technologies.
As part of our commitment to improving accessibility on our platform, we’ve identified areas where we hit the mark and are continually evaluating areas for improvement. We hope this transparency reflects our dedication to creating a more inclusive experience for all users. Below are some of the accessibility features CareerViewXR currently offers, and accessibility improvements we aim to prioritize as immersive technology evolves and development becomes possible.

Accessibility Limitations
Virtual Reality video technologies and the WebXR framework have some known accessibility limitations. In particular, VR Video technology viewed in a headset can be problematic for those with vertigo, motion sickness, tactile/sensory aversions, and other health-related concerns. Accessibility with VR Video playback is also restricted by the limited accessibility features available in VR devices’ native video players.
The WebXR framework used to deliver immersive content via the internet also has some accessibility challenges, primarily stemming from the inability to display HTML elements in a spatial environment. This presents challenges for screen reading technology and other built-in browser accessibility tools.
