ALC Services and Supports
Accommodation Planning
During this planning phase, we work on the development and implementation of your accommodation plan. Our Accessible Learning Centre (ALC) consultants will work with you one-on-one to determine appropriate academic accommodations and supports based on the documentation you provide.
Learning Strategies and Study Skills
Our group workshops and individualized sessions are focused on learning strategies and study skills development.
Exam Accommodations
Write exams with accommodations, including but not limited to:
- extra time
- use of a computer
- use of a small or private room
- assistive technology
Assistive Technology
Receive assistive technology tools and become informed through assessments, training and collaboration in assistive technology labs. Tech support is also available.
Alternative Format Material
You can request course material in an alternative format including e-text, braille or captioned audio.
Tutoring
Access to tutors may be available at an additional cost to you. Availability is conditional on the ability to recruit qualified tutors. Tutors may not be available for every course.
