    FAQs for Clients

    Are you interested in working with a design and development agency with a mission?

    What is Level 11 Technology about?

    Level 11 Technology is a future-thinking digital services agency. We operate on a unique model similar to that of a ‘teaching hospital.’

    We are committed to providing opportunities for career changers from marginalized groups who have acquired marketable technical skills in areas such as UX/UI Design, Coding and Web Development, Digital Marketing and Data Analytics but lack the work experience necessary to secure well-paying roles in the technology sector.

    Our approach combines learning and doing, mirroring the apprenticeship and journeyman structures found in skilled trades.

    Who does the work? How will we know it is high quality?

    At Level 11 Technology, all projects are undertaken by these talented, early-career technologists, who are compensated equitably, fairly and transparently. Their work is meticulously supervised by seasoned professionals with over a decade of experience each in their respective fields. This model not only ensures high-quality deliverables, but also contributes to the professional growth and development of the next generation of digital experts. 

    By entrusting Level 11 Technology with your project, your citizen users will benefit from our unique blend of seasoned expertise and fresh talent, all working towards creating a digital experience that is not only functional and accessible for users of all ability levels, but also is a true expression of the innovative and future-focused community your agency seerves.

    What services does Level 11 Technology provide?

    Our primary service is an accessibility-focused website evaluation. We identify the issues that make your website inaccessible to users with disabilities and present a thorough report on those findings.

    We are also available if you'd like to work with us for the accessibility remediation and redesign work.

    We believe that working with municipal governments, with the clear-cut accessibility requirements and usability best practices outlined in the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.2) and Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, provides an ideal environment for our apprentices to thrive and develop their skills. 

    How can we work with you?

    Do you have an existing website? Have you evaluated the website for digital accessibility barriers that could leave you vulnerable to digital accessibility lawsuits?

    We offer cost-effective, accessibility-focused website evaluations to identify any issues that make your website inaccessible to people with disabilities.

    If you'd like Level 11 Technology to respond to your RFP, simply reach out and let us know you have an open RFP (and be sure to include the link)! We don't expect special treatment. We'll prepare a thorough, detailed proposal and submit it for your review in the same way as any other digital services agency would.
