Accessibility

Aimhigher Yorkshire and Humber are committed to making this web site as accessible as possible to users with disabilities, including users who may be blind or partially sighted.

The design of our website includes a number of accessibility features including:

• A common design throughout rather than providing text only pages for disabled users, and allowing text sizes to be changed to suit the users needs.
• Ensuring that all images used in our site are given appropriate alternative text descriptions ("ALT texts"), as required by internationally recognised Web accessibility guidelines.
• All graphical navigation buttons are similarly ALT-tagged.
• Whilst the website has been designed to be as accessible to as many users as possible, the pages have been optimised to be best viewed with your screen resolution set to 1024x768 pixels or above and using modern web browsers (Firefox, Opera, Internet Explorer 7 and Safari for example). Where possible we have made the site compatible with older browsers.
• To get the best from the colour images contained on these pages we recommend you view with a colour depth greater than 256 colours.
