# How do I show accessibility work without a certification?

[Resumes & Portfolios](https://jobicy.com/question-category/resumes-portfolios.md)  Asked 5 Aug 2026  Active 7 Aug 2026 [Write an answer](#answer-form-container) [Log in to vote](https://jobicy.com/enter4715.php.md)

Question details I am applying for remote front-end roles and have helped my current team fix keyboard navigation, color contrast, and screen-reader issues, but I do not have an accessibility certification or formal audit experience. My resume currently lists these as general bug fixes, which feels too vague. How can I describe this work credibly without implying I am an accessibility specialist, and would a small before-and-after work sample be appropriate if I cannot share the original code?

Copy answer link   Report answer Rewrite each item to name the accessibility issue, your contribution, and the result, without claiming audit expertise: “Improved keyboard navigation in [feature] by correcting focus behavior” or “Resolved contrast and screen-reader labeling issues identified during team testing.”

- Label the work as accessibility remediation or inclusive front-end improvements, not certification-level auditing.
- A recreated before-and-after sample is appropriate if it uses original, non-confidential code and clearly explains the issue, fix, and how you checked it.

Were these fixes based on your own testing, user reports, or findings from another reviewer?
