Accessibility Statement
Introduction
This accessibility statement applies to the website published at www.study-at-srh.de by SRH Higher Education GmbH.
SRH Higher Education GmbH strives to make its website accessible in accordance with the EU Directive 2019/882 (“European Accessibility Act”) and in line with the national Accessibility Enhancement Act (Barrierefreiheitsstärkungsgesetz - BFSG).
General Description of the Service
SRH Higher Education GmbH offers the conclusion of contracts for continuing education programs as well as participation in academic study programs at its universities.
In addition, SRH Higher Education GmbH provides contact and support services for the purpose of initiating such contracts – for example, via an online contact form, telephone hotline, or in-person appointment scheduling.
Implementation of Accessibility Requirements
SRH Higher Education GmbH has taken care to design and develop its website to be accessible – or at least low-barrier – in terms of layout, usability, and navigation.
The requirements for accessibility are derived from Section 3 of the German Accessibility Enhancement Act (BFSG) in conjunction with the Regulation on the Accessibility Enhancement Act (BFSGV), which was issued on the basis of Section 3 (2) BFSG. The BFSGV defines the accessibility requirements for services offered in the course of business in Sections 12, 13, and 19. The technical specifications are based on EN 301 549.
These requirements have been implemented as follows:
- Simplified, user-friendly navigation and intuitive interface
- Enhanced visibility of contact and support elements such as text, links, and buttons through strong color contrasts and prominent contact buttons, including directions to the facility
- Use of color-highlighted hyperlinks and increased font size in content sections and service descriptions
- Clear identification of hyperlinks
The website already offers good accessibility in many areas for all users. However, it does not yet fully comply with the requirements of the Barrier-Free Information Technology Ordinance (BITV). As part of an upcoming technical revision, the relevant accessibility requirements will be implemented step by step.
Currently not barrier-free:
- Download of PDF documents
- Videos
