Accommodating Students with Psychological Disabilities in Higher Education
Presented by Dr. Aaron S. Cohen

The number of students with psychological disabilities enrolling in higher education has increased dramatically over the past few decades, yet the resources to serve these students have not. How can disability service providers meet these students' needs, while still helping students with other types of disabilities?

In this 90-minute recorded audio conference, you will learn the most common psychological disabilities and how they affect academics, what accommodations are reasonable, and how to get faculty buy-in to provide them.

Dr. Cohen also explores how to:

  • Deal with difficult accommodation requests or requests that you believe would fundamentally alter the nature of the course
  • Maintain your role as a disability specialist while working with those who are psychologically vulnerable
  • Coordinate with a student's therapist to be sure academic accommodations will not impede the student's emotional progress
  • Work with faculty members who may not understand psychological disabilities
  • And more!

(2006. CD-ROM. 90 min. Printed material included.)
