Web Accessibility

THIS WEBSITE HAS BEEN DESIGNED TO COMPLY WITH AS MANY POINTS AS POSSIBLE OF THE WCAG-2.0 STANDARD

This standard has been developed in particular by the following bodies and standards:

  • W3C (World Wide Web Consortium): international, independent consortium responsible for web standards.
  • WAI (Web Accessibility Initiative): W3C working group specialized in accessibility.
  • WCAG 2.0 (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines): set of recommendations to make the web more accessible.
  • RGAA 3.0 and Accessiweb: guidelines translating the WCAG 2.0 standard for French public service websites.

Websites are said to be accessible when all users can consult all pages and content. This means making the web and its services accessible to all, regardless of :

the tools and technologies used;

  • the physical or mental capabilities of users
  • conditions of use and environment ;
  • geographical location, etc.

In order to optimize web accessibility, the W3C standards organization groups recommendations into three categories of intervention:

  • website design ;
  • technical development of the web page ;
  • web content writing.

In this way, we strive to make our website as user-friendly as possible. This policy complies with the EU directive on website accessibility.

MENU: permanent display of navigation menus
The main menu, located at the top of the page, is permanently displayed on every page of the site, allowing you to access the main sections. The logo at the top of the page can also be used to return to the home page.

The site map at the bottom of each page gives access to all sections and sub-sections of the site.

Tab navigation
You can use the tab key to navigate between links on the site, or within a page, from one link to another (press Tab and repeat until the desired link is selected, then press Enter to confirm).
This allows you to navigate without a mouse.

Breadcrumb trail
The breadcrumb trail at the top of each internal page shows you the navigation path you have taken by locating the page displayed on the screen, and allows you to move up the tree structure.

Top of page” or ‘quick access’ link
The “Top of page” link (located at the bottom right of the page and represented by the “up arrow” icon) allows you to return to the top of the page with a single click.

The font size of content can be modified in most browsers. To do this, use the following commands:

  • CTRL” key and ”mouse wheel
