Skillcast Accessibility Statement 

Universal Design

We create one version of our content that works for everyone. We want every user to have the same high-quality experience. 

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.  

Clear Design

We use easy-to-read fonts and high-contrast colours to make sure everyone can read our e-learning modules comfortably.  

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. 

Responsive and Mobile-Friendly Design

Our content adjusts to fit any device, whether it is a computer, tablet, or smartphone. This allows users to access courses anytime, anywhere. Interactive elements work well on mobile devices, supporting gestures like tap and swipe. 

Descriptive Titles and Organised Text

Each page has a clear title to help users understand the content and navigate with ease. We also use headings to structure our text, helping users to follow and understand information with no issues. 

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. 

Accessible Videos and Audio

We provide closed captions and detailed transcripts for all videos and audio content, making these accessible to everyone.  

Support for Different Learning Styles

A variety of content formats, such as text, video, and audio, is used to support different learning needs. 

Continuous Improvement

We update our content based on feedback from users and clients and conduct regular audits to make sure our content meets the latest standards.
