AccessAlly Pro comes with a built-in progress tracking feature that allows you to create progress bars and pie charts, and track the user’s journey through your online courses. Progress tracking depends on “Checklists” to gain the necessary progress information. The tutorials on this page show you how to create these checklists and start tracking your students’ progress.
