All colors are WCAG compliant; everything else still needs to be tested.

The Accessibility Checker marked the site as non-compliant and referred me to other checkers.

Audioeye

Our site failed this test. Audioeye ranks the site's accessibility as a 61 out of 100.

Issues found include:

• There needs to be a warning label on the links that go to the downloadable PDFs (update: fixed)
• Links should not open in new tabs because this can disorient users with low vision who may not immediately know a new tab was opened (update: fixed)
• All abbreviations need tags (update: fixed)

I have a free trial now so we can get more information.
