Accessible Education Support
Overview
The Accessible Education Unit (AEU) is a team within the University Wellbeing Office (UWO) that supports students with special educational needs (SEN). AEU also works with members of the NTU community providing consultation and advice on academic and non-academic matters concerning SEN.
SEN may arise from:
- Physical and Sensory Challenges (e.g., mobility challenges, hearing loss and vision loss)
- Social and Behavioural Challenges (e.g., ASD, ADHD)
- Learning and Language Challenges (e.g., dyslexia, dyscalculia)
Medical documentation and/or specialist assessment reports verifying the disability and/or SEN are needed to support the application for accommodation and/or support services.
Services
Students with SEN can approach AEU for assistance on:
- academic assessment accommodations
- advice on and/or loan of assistive technology &/or devices (AT)
- learning support (e.g., notetaking, sign language interpretation)
- SEN funding support for the procurement of support services and/or AT for eligible students
- non-academic support (e.g., on-campus housing, campus mobility orientation, career and internship guidance)
