SLIIT is committed to making its websites inclusive and accessible to all. We aim to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards and follow the best practices in design, development, and content to ensure usability for everyone.

As our website evolves, accessibility improvements are ongoing, and known issues are addressed promptly. We believe in equal access to information and continue working to enhance the experience for all users.

To help make our website more usable, we have installed an accessibility plugin which provides additional tools for users with different needs.

You can find the accessibility button (visible as a small icon at the corner of the page) on every page of our site. Clicking on this button opens a menu that allows you to:

• Increase or decrease text size
• Change contrast and color schemes
• Highlight links
• Enable text-to-speech
• And more

These tools are designed to make it easier for everyone to navigate and interact with our content.

Our website works on all modern web browsers. For the best experience, we recommend using:

• Google Chrome
• Mozilla Firefox
