Dynamic Learning Solutions is committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of technology or ability. We are actively working to increase the accessibility and usability of our website and in doing so adheres to many of the available standards and guidelines.
We have designed our website with the following accessibility guidelines in mind:
- Our pages are designed so that they can be viewed at a screen resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels. Although many users now have widescreen monitors or use laptops, this is still a widely used baseline for screen size.
- Page structure is conveyed using header elements where applicable.
- A stylesheet is used on our website to seperate content from design.
- Text can be increased or decreased in size by using the "view" option in your browser.
- Images that convey important information have alternative and title attributes. Where an image is used for a decorative purpose the alternative and title attributes will be left blank.
- No information is exclusively conveyed using colour.
- A site map is available to provide information about the layout of the website.
This website endeavours to conform to level Double-A of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities. Conformance with these guidelines will help make the web more user friendly for all people.
