Exceptions
While www.ukces.org.uk strives to adhere to the accepted guidelines and standards for accessibility and usability, it is not always possible to do so in all areas of the website.
We are continually seeking solutions that will bring all areas of the site up to the same level of overall accessibility. In the meantime should you experience any difficulty in accessing www.ukces.org.uk, please don’t hesitate to contact us at info@ukces.org.uk.
Known IE6 Issues
Due to the instability and amount of known issues with IE6, we took the decision at an early stage not to test our site against IE6 as it would have meant increased cost and resources. We are sympathetic to users who find themselves in situations where their IT departments have not upgraded to the latest version and have therefore made a request to our technical supplier to accommodate serious known issues such as the missing ‘download’ button from the Publications and Resources section.
