Ontario Human Rights Commission (OHRC) – Policy on Accessible Education
Duty to Accommodate: "is informed by three principles: respect for dignity, individualization, as well as integration and full participation."
“The accommodation process is a shared responsibility. Everyone involved should co-operate, share information, and explore solutions together.” (OHRC, Policy on Accessible Education, 2018)
I acknowlege that any breach of confidentiality regarding a rescheduled or deferred examination may result in academic penalites. Such breaches include but are not limited to the sharing or receipt of exam content or related information with other students through personal communication, electronic communication, or social media platforms.
Alternative Format
Many students with learning disabilities,visual disabilities, or certain mobility impairments may be interested in obtaining their textbooks and other materials in alternate formats (alt-format) as an auxiliary aid to assist them with their reading and coursework.
Check with you Advisor in SAS to learn more.
