Section 508 requires that Federal agencies’ electronic and information technology is accessible to people with disabilities. IT Accessibility & Workforce Division, in the U.S. General Services Administration’s Office of Governmentwide Policy, has been charged with the task of educating Federal employees and building the infrastructure necessary to support Section 508 implementation. Using this the Section 508 website , Federal employees and the public can access resources for understanding and implementing the requirements of Section 508.

WCAG 2.0 Checklist
Along the same line as their popular Section 508 Checklist, WebAIM has just published a WCAG 2.0 Checklist.
This is intended to be an easy-to-use, understandable checklist for evaluating or implementing WCAG 2.0–a standard for creating accessible websites (and eLearning). The language in the checklist is significantly simplified from the actual WCAG 2.0 language published by the W3C. While the complexity of the language in WCAG 2.0 is, in my opinion, mostly necessary to ensure that it is independently verifiable and technology agnostic, it does pose difficulties – particularly for those new to accessibility. This checklist should make implementing WCAG 2.0 much easier.
Check out the WCAG 2.0 checklist at http://webaim.org/standards/wcag/checklist.
