Services for Adult Students with Disabilities

  • Student Services program counselors and The Learning Center (TLC) personnel work jointly to serve the needs of adult students with disabilities. Students must self-identify their disability and provide current documentation and vocational recommendations from professionals as to their limitations and expected reasonable accommodations. We encourage students to meet with Erwin staff before entering programs so that we may plan accordingly. 

    Adult Students with Disabilities may request accommodations through The Learning Center before CASAS re-testing. Students with disabilities need to submit valid documentation (which must be recent) with vocational recommendations to assist with the creation of an adult individual education plan, if needed and requested. 

    Erwin is a two-story building with wide corridors and an elevator that accommodates wheelchairs. The Learning Center is equipped with special equipment for vision impaired and hearing-impaired students. An Interpreter for hearing impaired students is available with advanced notice.
