Mission
The Access and Support Centre (ASC) advances Durham College’s commitment to inclusion in the learning environment.
The ASC’s everyday practice is guided by these principles:
Inclusion
We promote inclusive design and proactive consideration of diverse learners.
Collaboration
We develop partnerships and facilitate education to enhance academic accessibility.
Student-centred service
Students determine for themselves the extent to which they access the ASC’s resources and how they will manage their personal information. Services are provided in a manner that respects confidentiality. Students who identify barriers to learning develop access plans with the ASC, and communicate with faculty in order to ensure access in the learning environment
