Accessibility Statement

Kamu – Student Handbook Website

The University of Eastern Finland wishes to guarantee the accessibility of its websites in accordance with the law about digital services (306/2019) (in Finnish). This accessibility statement applies to the website Kamu – Student Handbook at kamu.uef.fi provided by wordpress.com and its subsidiary pages. The website was first published on the 1st November 2017.

This accessibility statement was drawn up on the 23rd September 2020.

Status of Accessibility of the Digital Service

The WCAG 2.0 AA level criteria have been acknowledged on the website, and it is estimated that the criteria are mostly conformed to. Accessibility will also be considered in the future when the website is updated, and trainings will be organised for the content providers.

The accessibility has been assessed through self-assessment. All the pages have been assessed with SiteImprover and some additionally with Wave.

Non-accessible Content of the Digital Service

Kamu includes content that is not accounted for in the legislation:

  • Content published by users or other outside operators, which is not produced, financed or maintained by the service provider.
  • Office program files (e.g. doc, pdf) that have been published before the 23rd September 2018.
  • Video or audio recordings that have been published before the 23rd September 2020.

Technical Deficiencies

The front page features a carousel slider with deficiencies related to navigating and colour contrast.

The element IDs on some pages are not yet individual (WCAG 2.4.4., 2.4.9., 4.1.2).

There are links with no textual equivalents on two pages (WCAG 4.1.1).

Some of the files on the site are not accessible. As the accessibility criteria is applied to Kamu on 23 September 2020, files that have been published after the 23rd September 2018 but before the 23rd September 2019 are not accounted for by the criteria. Adjustments are still being made.

The Hotjar speech bubble for feedback does not conform to the accessibility criteria. You can give feedbake using an electonic form.

The service is currently being developed and may contain other accessibility deficiencies during testing. The service is expected to be ready in early autumn 2021.
