Web Site Guidelines

UMSON design standards have been developed with the goal of providing a standardized look for University of Maryland School of Nursing Web sites.  These standards will be posted shortly.

Usability & Accessibility

UMSON is committed to making the information and resources that it provides via the web accessible to all users. We aim to be standards compliant and follow general principles of usability and universal design, which should help all visitors to this Web site. By using techniques to help users of assistive and adaptive technologies, we have provided one version of the site which everyone should be able to use.

The UMSON's Web site follows W3C's Website Accessibility Initiative (WAI) Guidelines and complies with US federal standards, including Section 508 requires that Federal agencies' electronic and information technology is accessible to people with disabilities. This Web site is created to display correctly on standards-compliant Web browsers such as IE6+, Firefox, Opera, Safari, Chrome, and others for PC, Mac, and Linux users. The UMSON Web site is scalable for use by non-traditional devices, such as smartphones, iPhones, and other PDAs.
