/* =====================================================================
   SB Skills Group — public site

   Design language follows the reference layout the client supplied, in the
   SB palette: a dark utility bar, white header with centred nav, a coloured
   announcement strip, full-bleed hero with a scrim, pill-badge section
   eyebrows, serif display headings over sans body, alternating white /
   brand-blue / cream sections, and image-topped cards.

   Mobile-first: every rule is the small-screen rule until a min-width query
   says otherwise.
