Voluntary Product Accessibility Template
VPAT stands for Voluntary Product Accessibility Template. A VPAT is a form to be completed
by the vendor that documents their product’s conformance with the Section 508 Accessibility
Standards. A completed VPAT should state which criteria the product supports, and
explain what features it utilizes to support accessibility. This document must be
requested from the supplier if the product will be used by students, employees, or
the general public. A VPAT is required for the procurement of any Information and
Communication Technology (ICT).
Examples of ICT include, but are not limited to: computers and peripheral equipment; information kiosks and transaction machines; telecommunications equipment; customer premises equipment; multifunction office machines; software; applications; Web sites; videos; and, electronic documents.
