Accessibility

If you find it difficult or inconvenient to use a mouse to browse our site, there are a number of keyboard shortcuts available which may help you.

Access keys

The access key system allows you to quickly navigate to certain areas of the sites by using the keyboard rather than the mouse. To use an access key hold down the "Alt" key (usully to the left of the space bar) and press the access key given. Now press "Enter" and you should be directed to the relevant page.

The following access keys have been assigned to the main sections of the site:

• 1 - Home page
• 2 - How the Scheme Works
• 3 - Where will I be placed
• 4 - How to Apply
• 5 - The Talent Spot
• 6 - A Day in The Life
• 7 - News & Events
• 8 - Contact Us
• 9 - Access key details
• 0 - Site Map

Other keyboard shortcuts

Tab key
Pressing the "Tab" key on your keyboard (usually immediately above "Caps Lock" on the left hand side) will usually cycle through the links available on the page. Once the correct link is selected, press "Enter" to follow the link.

Managing browser windows
Links to other websites and links to attached files on our site (PDFs, Word files etc.) will open in a new browser window. The standard Windows keyboard shortcuts apply: to cycle between open windows hold down "Alt" and press "Tab". To close the currently selected window hold down "Alt" and press "F4".
