Placement Specific Accommodations
We can support you in creating a placement specific accommodation plan
Did you know you can request accommodations for practicum placements, professional seminars, an co-op work terms?
We do this by:
- Communicating with you to understand the placement environment and how your disability may create functional challenges
- Reviewing your documentation
- Completing research into industry specific accommodations
- Consulting with faculty about the overall requirements and essential competencies of the placement
- Drafting placement specific accommodation letters for submission to your placement coordinator
Please Note: Your faculty has very specific timelines, and they may not be flexible. You are required to consider these timelines and ensure you are meeting your program requirements. We recommend students connect with placement coordinators well in advance for the best possible experience.
If you are registered with the ALC and require Placement Specific Accommodations please contact alc@uleth.ca to book a meeting with a member of our team.
If you need specialized support staff or technologies, this process may also require financial conversations and a possible grant application for eligible funded services. The complete process, from initial request to letter may take 4-6 weeks. Any grant funding approval for specialized supports and/or technologies could take a further 4-7 weeks.
