Explore the Disability Resource Center Faculty Portal! |
The Disability Resource Center (DRC) Faculty Portal has launched! This portal is designed to streamline the accessibility process for faculty members by providing easy access to information regarding DRC-approved accommodations for your classes.
Faculty will be able to view which DRC-approved accommodations have been activated for their classes. It’s a convenient way to ensure awareness of student accommodations that may be required to succeed in courses.
A friendly reminder: Students are responsible for activating their disability-related accommodations. They can do so at any point during the term. However, it is strongly recommended that they activate accommodations as early as possible to ensure a smooth and successful academic experience.
If there are any questions or you need assistance with the portal, please don't hesitate to reach out to the Disability Resource Center. You can contact the DRC at 503-725-4150 or via email at drc@pdx.edu. Their team is here to support faculty every step of the way.
