([accessibilityassociation.org](https://www.accessibilityassociation.org/sfsites/c/resource/CPACCBoK?utm_source=openai))  \n- It focuses on conceptual (non-technical) knowledge across a broad range of accessibility topics. It\u2019s not about writing code or technical implementation. ([boia.org](https://www.boia.org/blog/what-is-a-cpacc-accessibility-certification?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n## What It Covers\n\nThe certification tests understanding across three main domains:\n\n1. **Disabilities, Challenges, and Assistive Technologies**  \n   Understanding types of disabilities, assistive tools people use, and barriers they face. ([accessibilityassociation.org](https://www.accessibilityassociation.org/sfsites/c/resource/CPACCBoK?utm_source=openai))\n\n2. **Accessibility and Universal Design**  \n   Concepts like how design can accommodate everyone (not just specific groups), both in digital and physical environments. Universal Design principles, etc. ([accessibilityassociation.org](https://www.accessibilityassociation.org/sfsites/c/resource/CPACCBoK?utm_source=openai))\n\n3. **Standards, Laws, and Management Strategies**  \n   Key laws, standards around accessibility (like WCAG, ADA, etc.), and how organizations can manage accessibility efforts. ([accessibilityassociation.org](https://www.accessibilityassociation.org/sfsites/c/resource/CPACCBoK?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n## Who It\u2019s For & Exam Details\n\n- Ideal if you work in roles that include or oversee accessibility \u2014 such as project management, HR, policy, leadership, DEI, compliance \u2014 but not necessarily in hands-on development. ([accessibilityassociation.org](https://www.accessibilityassociation.org/certification-overview?utm_source=openai))  \n- You need at least **one year of experience in accessibility** or a role with some responsibility for it. If you don\u2019t have that, there\u2019s usually a way to explain your background/goals. ([accessibilityassociation.org](https://www.accessibilityassociation.org/sfsites/c/resource/CertHandbook2025?utm_source=openai))  \n- The exam typically has **100 multiple-choice questions**, lasting **2 hours**.
