We aim to provide a great user experience for everyone, regardless of your access to or ability with technology.
To do this, we are applying the relevant accessibility standards.
The guidelines we use
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) sets out the rules and requirements for improving accessibility for people with disability. Our designers and developers use the guidelines from WUHCAG to make the DeafNav site more accessible.
Our accessibility aims
Our aim is to achieve a Level AA accessibility standard.
This is an ongoing process, and we are committed to improving accessibility to the DeafNav website as our website evolves.
How we are improving digital accessibility

- Providing ongoing accessibility training for relevant staff;
- Including people with disability in DeafNav’s design personas;
- Conducting accessibility testing and producing written reports during our User Acceptance Testing Phase; and
- Partnering with design agencies that are experienced with and committed to high accessibility standards.
