UPEI Accessibility Services is implementing a new system called Accommodate, which will support the coordination of exams and accommodations for students with documented disabilities. The department’s previous system AccessDeck is being eliminated. Accommodate will be “Going-Live” on Tuesday, August 1, 2023. 

Faculty and Instructional staff will need to familiarize themselves with the system and related process changes, including improvements to tracking accommodated students, a change in the Accessibility Services testing process, and general information on accessing and navigating the Accommodate system. 

Information and Training sessions have been scheduled to take place in RL 265 on the following dates:

• August 10 - Deans and Department Chairs at 10:30 am
• August 22 - Open to all Faculty at 2:30 pm
• August 23 - Academic Department Admins (Demo) at 10:00 am
• August 30 - Open to all Faculty at 10:00 am
• Additional training sessions will be added in September

If you have any questions, please email accessibility@upei.ca, and a member of the Accessibility Services team would be happy to respond.
