Try to use simple tables with only one header row and column (Tables 2 and 3). Tables with merged or split cells are difficult for screen readers and also can be challenging to interpret (Table 1). If you have any complex tables, break them into multiple tables or present the data in another format that is easier to read.

How to Check 1i:

Visually inspect documents and Canvas pages for complex tables.

How to Address 1i:

Break down complex tables into smaller tables or include data in multiple formats.
