Accessibility

• We are open to submission of application forms via any alternate methods, i.e., an audio file (on which we could apply an auto transcription service), or an attachment as a Word or PDF-fillable form.  Part of the application process involves a meeting with the program team (faculty lead/instructor and coordinator) to ensure the program will be a good fit for all.
• We also work closely with the SFU Centre for Accessible Learning whenever students have needs when they are in the classroom.
• Our instructor is open to the form of communication the student feels most comfortable with.
• Here are links to the alternate application forms.
• It should be noted for prospective applicants, that the classes are held in-person (Mon, Wed, Friday), 9 am - 4 pm downtown in a wheelchair-friendly space. Also that there are no exams, but that there is group/team work and a lot of dialogue. Dialoguing is face-to-face along with text-based dialogue via discussion forum areas in Canvas. We have not looked into a comprehensive hybrid modality for the course for the Fall term, hence the expectation is that students will be attending and gaining academic credit for the program, by attending in-person. We strive to maintain a safe and comfortable space for all, accommodating the specific needs of individuals within the cohort.
