Table of contents
A table of contents gives users an overview of the document's contents and organization. It also allows readers to go directly to a specific section of an online document. This enables readers to jump to content relevant to them, or quickly re-find information.

Styles
Make use of styles in Microsoft Word.
Styles allow you to ‘tag’ text as different types, like:
- what is a heading
- what is body text
- what is a list.
By tagging content and categorising text, you can consistently format those types of text. This also allows screen readers to interpret the different styles.
