The State of South Dakota recognizes the need to ensure equal access to electronic and information technologies for all individuals. The South Dakota Bureau of Information and Telecommunications (BIT) has specific standards for web development design in order to provide an accessible web presence that enables the public full access to South Dakota government information and services.

Understanding that state government has a responsibility to provide online services and information to all citizens and businesses across South Dakota, we continue to make reasonable efforts to accommodate all users by following the W3C recommendations and the federal government's Section 508 Standards.

For more information please review the current state government web development standards.
