Disability Liaison Contacts

Under the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA), if you have a vision or hearing impairment, physical or learning disability, neurological condition, mental health illness or chronic medical condition then you are entitled to support services by TAFE Institutes.

  • Alternative arrangements for assessment (for example, additional time, scribe, reader)
  • Academic Support Workers (for example, note takers, interpreters, readers)
  • Access to adaptive technology (for example, voice activated software)
  • Alternative format course materials (for example, braille, disk)
  • Liaison with lecturers / teachers
  • Physical access to facilities
  • Referral to other support services (for example, counselling, health, housing, financial aid, learning skills unit)
  • Enrolment and campus orientation
