[Web Focus Home] ---> [Events] ---> [Workshops]

The following table gives a summary of a survey of the accessibility of home pages of Web sites for participants on the "Leicester Spring School In New Media" which was held at University of Leicester on 20^th April 2005.

The survey makes use of the Etre accessibility checking tool.

It is important to be aware that this survey does not say if a page is accessible - it simply reports on accessibility problems which can be detected by an automated tool. A full accessibility audit would require manual checking in addition to use of automated tools.

A summary of the findings is given in the following table.

You can use the service yourself either by going to Etre or by entering a URL in the following box:
