Jarrold Training is always looking to improve it’s web sites and make them easier to use. We have designed our site in accordance with guidelines laid down by the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) and the RNIB.

The guidelines include:

• Using meaningful ALT text for all images to provide descriptive text.
• Using descriptive hyperlink text where necessary.
• Avoiding the use of frames, which are difficult for special browsers to interpret.
• Provide navigational short cuts for users of text only browsers and page readers.
• Using an easy-to-see web colour scheme.
• Using an easy to read font type, size and colour.

Making web sites easy to use goes further than just colours and fonts. We work hard to make sure our content is easy to read and easy to navigate, taking into consideration customers who use speech readers.

Our main navigation options have been assigned keyboard access keys for users who don’t use pointing devices (such as a mouse).
