Website Reader Tutorial

How to Enable a Website Reader (for Google Chrome and Microsoft)

Our training pages are written so that they can be read aloud by built‑in website readers (screen readers) on Google Chrome and Microsoft devices. If you prefer to listen instead of read, follow these steps:

1. For Google Chrome (Chromebook or Windows/Mac with Chrome)

Google Chrome’s built‑in ChromeVox (Chromebook) or any OS screen reader (like NVDA on Windows or VoiceOver on macOS) can read your site.

On a Chromebook:

Press Ctrl + Alt + Z to turn the ChromeVox screen reader on or off.

Open your browser, go to the Oceana Express Training site, and let ChromeVox read the text as you move through the pages.

On a Windows PC with Chrome:

You can use NVDA (free) or JAWS (paid). Download NVDA from nvaccess.org.

After installing, open Chrome, go to the Oceana Express Training site, and use the screen reader’s keyboard shortcuts (e.g., H to jump to headings, Tab to move between links) to navigate the tutorial.

On a Mac with Chrome or Safari:

Turn on VoiceOver by pressing Cmd + F5.

Open the browser, navigate to the Oceana Express Training site, and allow VoiceOver to read the content.

2. For Microsoft Devices (Word / Edge / Windows)

Microsoft includes Narrator and Narrator + Edge for reading web content.

On Windows 10/11 with Microsoft Edge or Chrome:

Press Windows key + Ctrl + Enter to turn Narrator on or off.

Open the browser, go to the Oceana Express Training site, and let Narr barrier read the headings and instructions.

To make text larger and easier to read or listen to:

In the browser, hold Ctrl + + (plus) to zoom in, or Ctrl + – (minus) to zoom out.

Use Tab to jump from one section or link to the next while the screen reader speaks.

3. How to Make Sure the Site Reads Well

To help screen readers work correctly, our site is built with:

Clear headings (H1, H2, H3) that match the structure you see.
Descriptive links (for example, “Next: Chain of Custody Policy” instead of just “Click here”).
Short, plain‑language paragraphs that are easy to follow.

If you notice any part of the site that is difficult for the reader to pronounce or follow, please report it to the OCE support team so we can update it.

By enabling Google Chrome or Microsoft’s built‑in website reader and opening the Oceana Express Training site, you can listen to the entire tutorial while following along visually. This supports accessibility, learning, and compliance for all drivers.
