Accessibility statement
Last updated: 7 June 2026
HMS Klar believes mandatory HSE training must be accessible to everyone, regardless of ability or assistive technology. We aim for the website and courses to meet WCAG 2.1 level AA, the standard the Norwegian rules on universal design of ICT build on.
Status
The core user journeys, finding a course, starting for free, working through lessons and quizzes, taking the exam, paying for the certificate and logging in, have been tested and are assessed to conform to WCAG 2.1 AA. In practice this means:
- The whole purchase and learning flow is operable by keyboard alone, with a visible focus indicator.
- A skip-to-main-content link is present on every page.
- Text and UI elements meet contrast requirements (at least 4.5:1 for text).
- All images have text alternatives; decorative images are hidden from screen readers.
- Forms have associated labels, and error messages are announced to screen readers.
- Quiz and exam questions are exposed as labelled option groups to assistive tech.
- Page language, heading structure, and button/link semantics are set correctly.
Known limitations
We are honest about what we cannot yet fully guarantee:
- This assessment is an internal self-evaluation carried out in June 2026, not an external third-party audit. An independent review is planned.
- The certificate is delivered as a generated PDF. The PDF is readable but has not been reviewed for full PDF/UA tagging; the online verification page is accessible.
- The staff-only admin interface is not prioritised in this assessment.
If something does not work with your assistive technology, we want to know and will fix it as fast as we can.
How to report an issue
Send us a description via the support page and a human replies within 1 business day. Please tell us which page, what happened, and which assistive technology or browser you use.
Complaints
Universal design of ICT is regulated by the Norwegian Equality and Anti-Discrimination Act section 17 and its regulation. The Authority for Universal Design of ICT (part of the Norwegian Digitalisation Agency) supervises the rules, and the Anti-Discrimination Tribunal handles individual complaints. We still encourage you to contact us first so we can put it right.
