Accessibility and Academic Accommodations
NBCCD is committed to providing an inclusive and accessible learning environment for all students. You can help to do this by designing courses that take into account students’ diverse backgrounds and abilities and working collaboratively with Student Services to provide academic accommodations to students with documented disabilities. For more information about how students with disabilities can be supported at NBCCD, please have a chat with our Learning Strategist.
A great way to design your course to increase accessibility and reduce barriers to learning is by using Universal Design for Learning principles. This educational framework helps you to proactively meet the needs of students from a variety of backgrounds and abilities and can reduce the need for individualized accommodations.
