Accessibility

Many people with disabilities can find websites difficult to use simply because of the way they are designed and built. If you want to learn about the functioning of sites, their components or layout, buy a personal statement online to present yourself well and join people who explain well, teach you, or help you in self-realization. WSDAN is committed to providing services that are helpful to all our users, and this includes providing an accessible website.

We have built our pages to be compatible with adaptive technologies used by disabled people, and we ensure that hyperlinks clearly describe where they go. Our website has been built to conform to at least the AA standard of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). Most pages on this website conform to the AAA standard.*

A description of every image is provided, either in the alt tag or on the page itself.
