Complete the Accessible Tourism Assessment to understand where your business is currently benchmarked, and get a report that you can share with potential guests to help them understand your accessibility.
Participate in free assessments, workshops, and more to improve your business’s accessibility and communicate it effectively to your visitors. The Accessible Tourism Accreditation program assists businesses to improve and communicate their accessibility for visitors across five areas:
- Low hearing
- Cognitive/autism
- Limited mobility
- Mobility aids - wheelchairs and scooters
- Low vision
Businesses that complete the program and become accredited receive Accessible Tourism brandmarks to promote themselves to potential visitors as an Accessible Tourism Accredited business in the areas where the business meets the required standard.
For existing accredited businesses, to access this program and your annual renewal, please login via the Quality Tourism Framework.
