This accessibility statement applies to Prevent duty training courses published on support-people-susceptible-to-radicalisation.service.gov.uk.
This website is run by Home Office. We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website. For example, that means you should be able to:
- zoom in up to 400% without the text spilling off the screen
- navigate most of the website using just a keyboard
- navigate most of the website using speech recognition software
- listen to most of the website using a screen reader (including the most recent versions of JAWS, NVDA and VoiceOver)
How accessible this website is
All videos in our courses have subtitles in both English and Welsh. Text transcripts are also available.
Our videos do not have descriptive text transcripts or audio description tracks describing the visual content of the video. People with visual impairments may not be aware of what is visually happening in videos.
Our training courses range from 30 to 60 minutes to complete.
The best user experience can be found by using a modern HTML5 compatible browser or equivalent assistive technology.
Our PDF documents contain some components and graphical objects that have insufficient contrast with the surrounding background. People with visual impairments may struggle to see the full detail of the document due to lack of contrast.
At the end of each course, there is an option to download a PDF certificate. Our PDF documents are not tagged and as a result they are not accessible to screen reader users and most other assistive technologies. People with motor impairments may also struggle with navigating the certificate due to lack of structure.
The Prevent referrals course includes a PDF template referral form that people can download and use within their organisation. The use of this form is optional and does not impact completing the course.
The courses contain links to external sites and documentation that is owned by a 3rd party. We therefore cannot verify the accessibility of these links.

Technical information about this website’s accessibility
The Home Office is committed to making its websites accessible, in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.
We recognise that there are still outstanding areas within the course(s) that are not yet fully accessible. Resolving this remains a high priority and as such we have implemented this work into our roadmap.
Compliance status
This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1 AA standard (opens in a new tab).
Live video
We do not plan to add captions to live video streams because live video is exempt from meeting the accessibility regulations. We also have some existing pre-recorded video content that was published before 23 September 2020. This content is also exempt from the regulations.
