    To ensure 508 compliance and provide accessibility to all users, the course does not auto-play.  The user has the control to manually advance and reverse each frame.  Auto-play may present a barrier to participants that utilize a screen reader to access the content.

    Adult learners are the target group for each self-paced online course.  Each user has the flexibility to review the content at their own pace, which includes repeating and advancing through content.  This approach accommodates the differences in knowledge and experience in adult learners.
