WCAG 3.0 is an active W3C Working Draft in development by the AGWG. Requirements, assertions, the conformance model and reporting tiers are still being developed and may change. The latest published draft is the 10 September 2026 Working Draft; this site follows the editors’ draft, which also includes exploratory provisions.
An organisational assertion: the organisation states that it added help and training in response to usability testing with people with cognitive and mental health disabilities, and records when that testing happened.
Why It Matters
Help written without testing tends to answer the questions the authors imagined. Testing with the people who rely on it is what finds the gaps that matter.

Examples from the Draft
Worked examples the W3C editors wrote into the provision itself, not
examples invented here.
Solutions include help with completing functionality such as data entry, task completion, search, and understanding complex ideas and visualizations.
Test Procedure from the W3C Draft
Upstream has a test heading for this provision but has not written
the procedure yet, and no test steps have been written here.
Generic advice would apply to almost any provision, so none is shown.
