Web Accessibility

Scitech is committed to ensuring its website is available to the widest possible audience, including readers using assistive technology or accessibility features.

You have reached the main content region of the page.

Our website aims to conform to level AA of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).

The Centre for Accessibility was commissioned to undertake a site audit in October 2019. The results of this audit will be investigated over the following months. Our aim is to continually test and improve the website.

Formatted text

Content on this website – including headings, body text, listed content, content in tables – is formatted using HTML coding as prescribed by WCAG. Semantic heading structures are used.

Images and graphics

The content of all images and graphics is described in alt text, which appears when a cursor/on focus sits on an image.

Layout

The layout of content on each page is controlled by Cascading Style Sheets (CSS).

Links

Wherever possible, hyperlinks contain descriptions of information found in the link’s destination.

  • The top menus provide access to the main subsections of the website.
  • A ‘Skip to content’ link is available for users using text-only browsers such as lynx or screenreaders. This link is at the top of the page and allows you to skip directly to the content without having to scroll past the site navigation and headers.
