Accessibility at BTA
At BTA, we are committed to ensuring that our digital services are accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. Our goal is to develop and maintain our websites in accordance with the WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility standards. This means we apply modern technologies and best practices to make our content more inclusive and user-friendly.
We believe that accessibility is not just a technical requirement - it’s a reflection of our values: availability, humanity, and reliability for all.
Keyboard-Only Navigation
Our websites are fully navigable using only a keyboard. You can move through interactive elements - such as links, buttons, and form fields - by pressing the Tab key. The currently selected element will be visually highlighted with a border or outline. To activate the selected item, press the Enter key.
This feature is especially helpful for users who cannot use a mouse or prefer keyboard navigation.
Zooming In and Out
To improve readability, you can zoom in or out on any page using your browser’s built-in zoom functionality:
- Windows/Linux: Press Ctrl and + to zoom in, or Ctrl and - to zoom out.
- macOS: Press Cmd and + or Cmd and -.
- Alternatively, hold Ctrl (or Cmd) and scroll with your mouse wheel.
This feature works across all major browsers, including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge.
Screen Reader Compatibility
Our websites are designed to work with screen readers—software that reads aloud the content on the screen or converts it into Braille. We follow best practices to ensure compatibility, including:
- Providing alt text for images (if images are used without accompanying text)
- Using semantic HTML for clear content structure
- Ensuring logical reading order and keyboard focus
- Labeling form fields and buttons clearly
Popular screen readers supported include:
- NVDA (Windows, free)
- VoiceOver (macOS, built-in, just English language voice)
- Narrator (Windows, built-in, just English language voice)
We encourage users to explore these settings to create the most comfortable browsing experience.
