Disability support
The Disability and Learning Access Unit (DLAU) provide services to students with disabilities within the University's equity framework and in accordance with the Disability Standards for Education 2005.
The role of the DLAU is to support the development of a learning and working environment that maximise participation in University life by students with a disability.
The Unit employs Disability and Learning Access Officers (DLAO) whose role it is to:
- Negotiate tailored services to meet the individual needs of students with a disability.
- Participate in policy development in relation to the University's obligations under anti discrimination legislation.
- Raise community awareness about disability and access issues.
- Ensure that the academic standards and inherent requirements of a program or course are not compromised.
