Accessibility

improstudio.org is committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability. Whilst improstudio.org strives be accessible, it is not always possible to do so in all areas of the website and we are currently working to achieve this.

We are learning how to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), including WCAG 2.0 and WCAG 2.1. The guidelines and Success Criteria are organized around the following four principles, as copied from the WCAG 2.1 Introduction:

Perceivable - Information and user interface components must be presentable to users in ways they can perceive (it can't be invisible to all of their senses).
Operable - Users must be able to operate the interface (the interface cannot require interaction that a user cannot perform)
Understandable - Information and the operation of user interface must be understandable.
Robust - Content must be robust enough that it can be interpreted reliably by a wide variety of user agents, including assistive technologies.

Be aware that due to the dynamic nature of the website, minor issues may occasionally occur as it is updated regularly. We are continually seeking out solutions that will bring all areas of the site up to the same level of overall web accessibility.

If you have any comments and or suggestions relating to improving the accessibility of our site, please contact us through this contact form. Your feedback will help us make improvements.
