Accessibility

Accessibility means that as many people as possible can use the online services and the documents published in them as easily as possible. Accessibility must be taken into account in the design and implementation of online content and documents.

The Act on the Provision of Digital Services (306/2019) also applies to higher education institutions. Accessibility is not required if the material is produced in connection with teaching and its use takes place in a limited group on a fixed-term basis. The accessibility requirements of the Act do not apply to live video broadcasts either.
