Vendor Program

DistrictCheck Verified

The DistrictCheck Verified badge gives edtech vendors a simple way to show districts that accessibility documentation exists, has been reviewed, and is current enough to support procurement conversations.

This program is built for vendors that already have a VPAT or accessibility conformance report and want a buyer-facing trust signal on top of it. Districts get a clearer path to documentation. Vendors get a cleaner answer when buyers ask, “Do you have a current VPAT?”

What the badge actually means

The goal is not to imply perfect accessibility. The goal is to show districts that your documentation is real, current, and strong enough to support a serious procurement review.

Verified documentation

You have provided a current VPAT, ACR, or equivalent accessibility documentation that can be reviewed and linked from your vendor profile.

Transparent claims

The badge is reserved for vendors whose accessibility claims are specific, dated, and materially more useful than vague “we care about accessibility” language.

District-facing trust signal

District buyers can see that your accessibility posture has been reviewed through the same lens used across the DistrictCheck database.

How verification works

The process is designed to be lightweight for vendors but useful for districts that need written evidence before purchase or renewal.

1

Submit your docs

Send your current VPAT, ACR, or accessibility packet along with a product list and the date each document was last updated.

2

Review against the rubric

DistrictCheck checks documentation quality, specificity of claims, freshness, and whether the materials support a defensible procurement file.

3

Launch the verified profile

Once approved, your vendor profile can display the DistrictCheck Verified status and link buyers to the reviewed documentation path.

4

Keep it current

When your VPAT changes, send the update. The badge is only valuable if districts can trust that it still reflects the current state of the product.

Who this is for

The strongest fit is vendors whose district buyers are already asking for a VPAT and whose sales team needs a faster, cleaner answer.

Edtech vendors with a current VPAT

If your product team has already done the documentation work, the badge helps that work show up where district buyers are actively researching tool risk.

Customer success and sales teams

The badge reduces the friction of repeated accessibility questions by giving your team a public reference point that districts can review directly.

Vendors improving their posture

If you are close but not there yet, DistrictCheck can still surface what districts are likely to ask next so you know what to strengthen before reapplying.
