Making Graduation More Accessible with Tassel
Accessibility isn’t just a requirement—it’s a responsibility. At Tassel, we believe every graduate and guest deserves to feel seen, supported, and celebrated. That’s why our graduation management software is built with accessibility in mind from start to finish.
Here are some of the ways Tassel empowers schools to create ceremonies that are inclusive, thoughtful, and dignified for everyone involved:
Accessible Registration from the Start
Accessibility starts before the ceremony. Tassel’s registration forms and web tools are designed to meet ADA compliance standards, supporting screen readers, keyboard navigation, and clear visual hierarchy—so everyone can register with ease.
Our customizable registration forms include dedicated sections for graduates and guests to request ADA support—from general needs like wheelchair access to more specific accommodations such as ASL interpreters or sensory‑friendly seating.
Proactive, Personalized Communication
Tassel’s Communication module within our Hub platform lets schools send targeted email reminders to individuals who’ve requested support. Whether it’s automated follow‑ups based on form responses or filtered emails to specific lists, your team can ensure every attendee gets the information they need to feel prepared and welcome.
Reports That Help Teams Prepare
We make it easy to generate reports for day‑of‑event staff, outlining specific support needs. These reports help ushers, volunteers, and help desk teams provide timely assistance and direct attendees to reserved seating or support areas.
Intelligent Ticketing
Stage passes and guest tickets can be updated to reflect accessibility accommodations—ensuring that every scanner, usher, and support staffer has the right context at the right time.
Layouts That Lead with Inclusion
Our venue layout tools allow for clear labeling of ADA support zones. Placeholder text and section allotments help your team map out seating, entrances, and services with accessibility top of mind.
Accommodating Stage‑Crossing Tempo
Crossing the stage is a moment of pride. Tassel’s Director software helps schools adjust timing for graduates who may need more time—whether due to mobility aids, service animals, or simply a more comfortable pace. Need to allow for a blank screen while someone gets into position? We’ve thought of that, too. Our Customer Success Managers are always ready to help you coach your stage crew on how to manage timing with care and confidence.
Graduation should be joyful for everyone.
Tassel’s accessibility features help schools go beyond checkboxes and create ceremonies that are inclusive in practice, not just policy. If you're ready to plan a more accessible event, our team is here to support you every step of the way.
