About Academic Accommodations

Keyano College is committed to supporting and promoting a welcoming, inclusive, and sustainable learning environment.

Whether you are a current or prospective student with a disability, our Accessibility Services Team office offers free and confidential supports to students with disabilities by providing academic accommodations, adaptive technologies and learning strategies to facilitate learning.

We require documentation of disability impacts to understand how your disability impacts you in the post-secondary learning environment.

We collaborate with students, faculty, and staff to ensure that students receive the appropriate accommodations and have equal access to the full range of programs offered at the college.

Putting academic accommodations in place is the process of differentiating access to information, assignments, and/or evaluations to create equitable access to the learning environment, for students with disabilities. It is important to remember that the essential requirements of a course or program are not changed when accommodations are implemented. Rather, the discriminatory effect of the course environment is eliminated.

Academic accommodations are divided into two subsections: 

1.1.      Instruction-based accommodations 

Accommodations that are implemented in the classroom or virtual learning environment. 

1.2.      Testing-based accommodations 

Accommodations that may be implemented in the classroom or virtual learning environment, but also invigilated by Testing Services.
