We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website. For example, that means you should be able to:

  • Adjust time limits as an instructor, and extend inactivity time out limits as a student
  • Use a screen reader across the platform
  • Use the application across multiple devices with unrestricted orientation

AbilityNet has advice on making your device easier to use if you have a disability.
