Accessibility statement

Accessibility

The Accessibility Directive

In April 2019 EU's Accessibility Directive entered into force that requires mobile services and websites on public sector to be accessible. The directive applies also to organizations that receive more than half of their funding from public institutions.

Applying the accessibility directive's requirements will start in stages. In Finland, compliance with the requirements is supervised by the Regional Administration of Southern Finland. Legal requirements and guidance related to accessibility will be published on saavutetavuusvaatimukset.fi -website.

The Act on Provision of Digital Services declares a minimum level for accessibility to web services. The law is based on the WCAG 2.1 (Level AA) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines developed by the Worl Wide Web Consortium.

Accessibility in Futural Skills

Technical implementation

Futural Skills is based on the open source enterprice resource planning system (ERP) called Odoo. Odoo is designed to provide same functionalities and information for all people. This means that regardless of personal limitations, assistive programs, different screen sizes or various input devices (such as mouse, keyboard or touch screen), there should be no issues in using the web service.

The site is designed to be compatible with the following browsers:

  • Internet Explorer 11
  • Edge
  • Firefox
  • Chrome
  • Safari
  • Safari on mobile devices
  • Chrome on mobile devices

The accessiblity of the site depends on the following technologies:
