Accessibility policy

Accessibility standards

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. Our objective is to ensure that our sites are conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA, and we are working to address known limitations where sites do not currently meet this standard.

We have published (February 2023) a separate accessibility statement for IET Career Manager and we plan to add specific statements for other sites and applications, detailing known issues and how we intend to address these.

We aim to...

  • Create websites that are available to everyone including those with sight, hearing and motor impairment restrictions
  • Ensure all text is easy to read while using colour combinations that provide reasonable contrast 
  • Ensure videos, imagery and graphics are not the sole way of providing information
  • Ensure that navigation through our websites works in a coherent and consistent manner.
