Accessibility statement

Practitioner Ethics aims to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at Level AA across our website and courses. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disability, including people who are blind or have low vision, are deaf or hard of hearing, have limited movement, or have cognitive or learning disability.

Accessibility is part of how we design and write, not an afterthought. Our courses are mostly text, which works well with assistive technology, and we write in plain Australian English with clear headings, short paragraphs and defined key terms.

• Use a logical heading structure and meaningful page titles so that pages can be navigated with a screen reader.
• Make all functions, including course navigation, assessments and reflective accounts, usable with a keyboard alone, with a visible focus indicator.
• Use descriptive link text that makes sense out of context.
• Maintain sufficient colour contrast and avoid relying on colour alone to convey meaning.
• Support browser zoom and text resizing without loss of content, and layouts that work on phones, tablets and computers.
• Give form fields clear labels and error messages that explain how to fix the problem.
• Provide text alternatives for meaningful images and present tables with proper headers.
• Avoid time limits on course activities and assessments, so you can work at your own pace and take breaks.

Courses save your progress, so you can stop and return in several shorter sessions if that suits you. Your browser's zoom and reader modes work with course pages, and most operating systems offer built-in screen readers, magnifiers and text-to-speech that work with our content. If you would find a printable version of a quick-reference guide easier to use, ask us and we will help.

We test our pages, but some content may not yet fully meet our aim, particularly downloadable documents such as certificates and templates, and parts of the website provided by third parties, such as payment pages. We are working to improve these. If you need a document in a different format, we will try to provide one.

If you find something on our website or in a course that you cannot use, please email support@practitionerethics.com with the page or course, what you were trying to do, and the assistive technology, device and browser you were using, if any. We will work with you to find a solution, which may include providing content in an alternative format.
