Accessibility – we are redesigning our online learning modules to be accessible to:
- visually impaired.
- deaf or hard-of-hearing individuals.
- neurodivergent learners, offering both visual and auditory options means learners can use the one that suits them best.
- English as a second language learners benefit from both spoken and written versions, as they might be able to read/hear the language more easily than the other.
