Accessibility
Who are we?
Accessibility supports students within the Australian National University community whose participation in academic studies is impacted by physical and learning disabilities, mental health conditions, chronic medical conditions, and short-term illnesses/conditions. We also support carers and elite athletes.
Our team of DisAbility and Equity Advisors provide advice, evidence-based support, and adjustments to minimise the impact on an ÃÛÌÒÊÓƵstudent's studies. Accessibility helps students to participate fully in their program of study, be academically successful and achieve their personal best through the development of an Education Access Plan.
Advisors raise awareness and understanding of disability issues amongst the broader ÃÛÌÒÊÓƵcommunity through training and advice given on:
- general disability awareness
- disability standards
- disability disclosure
- inclusive education practices
- physical access issues
- education access plans; and
- special exam arrangements.
Our work is supported and guided by ÃÛÌÒÊÓƵpolicies and procedures, as well as national legislation and standards.
