Focusing on accessibility

We understand that it may not be possible to design a 100% accessible website, service or learning product meeting every single user’s needs, but we aim at designing every single piece of work we are producing as accessible as it can possibly be.

We are testing and developing our services alongside users considering the device and any assistive technology they are using.

Some key points we are considering are;

Language

• Clear and simple.
• Sentence case.
• Short sentences and paragraphs.
• Easy for a 9-year-old to understand it.

Structure

• Meaningful title.
• Arial font (Sans serif font).
• Minimum font size of 12 points.
• No capitalised text, italics or underlined text (except for links).
• Text left aligned, not justified.
• Links are descriptive and state where the user will land.
• Tables used only for data, not text.

Images

• Use of Contrast Checker (link opens in a new window). 
• Use of Experte tool (link opens in a new window).
• Use of alternative text unless images are for decorative purposes.

Videos

• Closed captions for English language.
• Subtitles for both English and Greek language.

Audio files

Transcript for both English and Greek language.
