What is a Trusted Tester? A Trusted Tester (TT) is an individual who has taken the required TT training courses and who has achieved at least 90% on the DHS Section 508 Trusted Tester Certification Exam. Essentially, they are experts who have proven their ability to evaluate content to determine Section 508 compliance and effectively communicate items that require remediation and why.
