The Paris School of Business website has been designed according to a set of simple accessibility rules to ensure the site is accessible to the widest audience, regardless of their software and hardware configurations or disabilities.
By employing principles and integration techniques that enhance accessibility to information and resources, the Paris School of Business website is built to facilitate access for users with disabilities, particularly through:
- A user interface that is perceivable, understandable, and operable
- An intuitive design
- Useful links accessible on all pages of the website
Beyond the benefits for users with disabilities, web accessibility provides broader advantages for all users, especially in terms of usability.
Website Structure
Menus and services are available on all pages of the website. The site adapts to all screen widths and resolutions and has been tested on various operating systems and browsers during its development.
Navigation and Site Map
A "breadcrumb" navigation menu at the top of each page indicates the location of the current page within the site structure.
The top menu provides access to the homepage, various sections, and a contact page.
The content of each page is displayed in the center, following consistent styling rules.
Each footer contains links to the official site pages: "Legal Notices," "Site Map," and "Accessibility."
Links are visually distinguished and appear in blue. When hovered over, all links are underlined.
Font Size
Text size is defined relatively throughout the site, allowing users to adjust the font size for optimal readability. To modify it to your preference, use the following options:
- Press [Ctrl] and scroll the mouse wheel.
- Use the browser toolbar: go to the "View" menu, then select the "Text Size" option and choose your preference.
Content, Style, Images
The text content code (XHTML) and layout code (CSS or style sheets) are separated, ensuring the site remains fully readable for users who have disabled style sheets. Images are annotated to support screen readers and non-graphical browsers (e.g., Lynx).
