Skillcast Accessibility Statement
Our Commitment to Accessibility
We are dedicated to making our E-learning content accessible to all users. We adhere to Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 AA standards and work with accessibility experts - TetraLogical - and our clients to continuously improve accessibility in our courses. Here is how we implement accessibility in our content and what it means for you.
Assistive Technology Compatibility
Our modules use HTML code designed to support a wide range of assistive technology:
- Screen readers
- Magnifiers
- Voice recognition software
This code helps users who rely on these tools to navigate, focus on key sections, and progress through the module with no issues. Users can also navigate our modules using a keyboard. This ensures smooth and efficient navigation for all no matter which device is used.
Readability
Readability tools check our text to make sure it is clear and easy to understand. By keeping our content concise and reducing the amount of text on each page, we help users grasp concepts quickly.
Using short paragraphs and sentences, we help make the learning process more accessible to different users. We also make sure all fonts used are large enough to help make the content more accessible and easier to read for all users.
Alternative Text for Images and Graphics
We provide text descriptions for all non-decorative images, such as those showing processes, charts, and graphs. This makes sure no detail is lost. Non-decorative images show essential information, so these descriptions help users who may not be able to see such images. Decorative images, on the other hand, are used to add on to the content’s visual appeal and do not require descriptions, as they do not contribute to the understanding of the content.
We avoid using images with text, but if necessary, we will add text descriptions to make sure all is in line with accessibility standards.
