Using access keys to jump to key pages

 

Access keys allow you to navigate to all the main sections of the website using only the keyboard. To use them in Internet Explorer (on a PC) press and hold the ALT key and then press the number you require, followed by the RETURN key.

If using Firefox press ALT-SHIFT followed by the access key. On any browser on the Mac press CTRL and the access key.

 

The following access keys have been set up:

 

  • 1 = Skill Build
  • 2 = Foundation Modern Apprenticeships
  • 3 = Modern Apprenticeships
  • 4 = Modern Skills Diploma
  • 5 = Construction Centre, Maesteg
  • a = Home Page
  • b = Meet The Team
  • c = Case Studies

Using a screen reader

 

The site is designed to work well with screen readers which are especially useful for blind visitors. Click the TEXT link at the top of the page to go to the text page; alternatively use these Access Keys:

 

  • t = Text Only version
  • i = Graphic version
  • w = Welsh website
  • e = English website
  •  

Magnifying the whole screen

 

Press and hold the CTRL button and the + or - keys or mouse scroll-wheel to magnify the screen. In Firefox and on Safari this will make text size increase instead of general magnification (use Command+ and Command- on a Mac).

 

 

Using the tab key to jump to links

 

We have set up the site so that you can easily get to all our links and buttons using the Tab →׀ key on your computer. Tabbing will easily allow you to jump to the most important links and will work sequentially through form fields and tables. You can press SHIFT-tab to go backwards and press RETURN to 'click' the link.

 

 

Alternative descriptive image text

 

Where an image is significant and descriptive, we will always provide a text alternative which is readable by screen readers or by hovering over any image with the mouse.

Accessibility Statement

 

We are committed to providing a single web site for everyone wishing to find information about the courses provided by Neath Port Talbot College on the worldwide web.

All web pages can be viewed in larger text by selecting 'View' in your internet browser, then text size.

Web Pages are tested over a variety of line speeds to identify potential issues with display times.

Documents are provided in pdf (Portable document format), as an alternative to html, where there is a requirement to print off a document which looks identical to a paper copy. In a few instances a pdf is offered without an html alternative where it has proved difficult to convert tables or charts to html.

Access keys are being developed for use on this site. Currently, they are available from the home page only. Click here for further details of how to use access keys.

If you have come across pages which you feel are not accessible please let us know.
