ADA Accommodations

The Director of Academic Learning Services is responsible for arranging reasonable accommodations for those students who have provided documentation stating a medical or learning disability. This service is confidential and free to all students. To receive accommodations, students are required to self-report. Testing to determine disabilities is not provided through this office, but referrals are made. Official documentation is accepted only from licensed health-care professionals. http://www.piedmont.edu/disabilities-support

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) defines a person with a disability as any person who has physical or mental impairment which substantially limits one or more major life activities (walking, seeing, hearing, speaking, breathing, learning, and working), has record of impairment, or is regarded as having such an impairment. We coordinate and provide a variety of academic and support services based on the individual needs of each student with the goal of creating an accessible academic, social, and physical environment for students with disabilities at Piedmont College.
