Accessibility Guide

In partnership with the non-profit organization Inclusion Alberta, NorQuest College’s Inclusive Post-Secondary Education initiative supports students with intellectual disabilities to be fully included in all aspects of post-secondary life, such as:

• Attending and preparing for classes, labs, and work-integrated learning opportunities
• Finding relevant career opportunities
• Building meaningful community connections
• Enjoying campus life

Students supported by this initiative pursue studies through an enhanced audit status for up to 4 years and receive a Certificate of Completion upon finishing their studies.

Getting started:

• Identify a program offered by NorQuest College that interests you.
• Determine eligibility for funding from the Persons with Developmental Disabilities (PDD) program. This program provides programming and services to adults with developmental disabilities and their families or guardians. For more information, email PDD.communityservices@gov.ab.ca.
