Evergreen Film Academy - Accessibility Statement

Accessibility Statement

Evergreen Film Academy is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for everyone. We are continually improving the user experience for all visitors, and applying the relevant accessibility standards. Our goal is to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA success criteria.

We understand that accessibility is an ongoing effort. We actively work to identify and address accessibility barriers on our website. We regularly review our website and conduct accessibility audits to ensure that our content and functionality are accessible to people with disabilities. This includes users who rely on assistive technologies, such as screen readers, screen magnifiers, voice recognition software, and keyboard navigation.

Our commitment extends to all aspects of our online presence, including our website, online course materials, and digital communications. We strive to provide accessible alternatives for all content, such as transcripts for audio and video content, and captions for videos. We also ensure that our website is compatible with a wide range of browsers and assistive technologies.

We believe that everyone deserves equal access to information and opportunities, and we are dedicated to making our website as accessible as possible. If you encounter any accessibility barriers while using our website, please let us know so we can address them promptly.

This accessibility statement applies to all pages within the evergreenfilmacademy.com domain.

Accessibility Features

We have implemented the following features to enhance the accessibility of our website:

Semantic HTML: We use semantic HTML elements to structure our content, making it easier for screen readers to understand the page layout and hierarchy.
Alternative Text: All images have descriptive alternative text (alt attributes) that convey the content and function of the image to users who cannot see them.
Keyboard Navigation: Our website is fully navigable using a keyboard, allowing users who cannot use a mouse to access all content and functionality.
Color Contrast: We have carefully selected color combinations to ensure sufficient contrast between text and background, making it easier for users with low vision to read the content.
Resizable Text: Users can easily increase or decrease the text size on our website using their browser settings.
Clear and Consistent Navigation: We have designed our website with a clear and consistent navigation structure, making it easy for users to find the information they need.
Forms: All forms are designed with accessibility in mind, including clear labels, instructions, and error messages.
Captions and Transcripts: All video and audio content is provided with captions and transcripts to make it accessible to users who are deaf or hard of hearing.
ARIA Attributes: We use ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) attributes to provide additional information to assistive technologies, enhancing the accessibility of complex user interface elements.
Focus Indicators: Clear focus indicators are provided for interactive elements, allowing keyboard users to easily see which element has focus.

We continuously monitor our website for accessibility issues and implement necessary updates to maintain a high level of accessibility.
