Accessibility Information

Collaborint is committed to designing a fully accessible website, compliant with Section 508 standards and the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) for Priority Levels 1, 2 and 3. To that end, in January 2004, we elected to implement all relevant Priority 1 Checkpoints and to satisfy all Section 508 requirements.

A few months later, additional design revisions to Collaborint.com resulted in meeting all relevant Priority Level 2 Checkpoints for WCAG AA Approval. Now we are pleased to announce that we have completed our accessible design retrofit.

Collaborint.com accessible design features

  • Access Keys”, “Help“, ”Site Map” and ”Search” are provided as alternative ways to assist the user in quickly finding content.
  • A “Skip Navigation” link is located at the very beginning of each page to enable those using screen readers and/or those who are tabbing to skip navigation and link directly to the main copy.
  • Text sizes are relative so the user has the ability to increase or decrease all text sizes according to individual preferences or needs:
    IE users: select View > Text Size
    Netscape users: select View > Text Zoom
    Opera users: select View > Zoom
  • Advanced CSS completely separates content from design and images are kept to a minimum. This has several benefits including: faster page load, efficient website maintenance, and compatibility with assistive devices (e.g. screen readers).
  • An alternative style sheet for printer friendly pages is available for all files.
    select File > Print Preview
  • All informational images use ALT tags (text equivalents). Images used for design and/or layout are called from the style sheets or contain a null ALT attribute, helping to ensure maximum efficiency for those using screen readers and/or those who have images turned off.

*Access keys were designed to provide the disabled user with shortcuts to navigation. Access keys consist of a single character and, when pressed, bring focus to the navigational element. It is important to note that the invocation of access keys depends on the operating system. For example, Windows operating systems generally require alt plus the access key.
