Alternative Media

Alternative Media refers to the conversion of printed course materials to alternative accessible formats such as Braille, large print, or electronic text files for students with print-related disabilities.  Alternative media is an accommodation approved on an individual basis through the interactive process between the student and the Associate Director or Director of CDHP and includes a review of the student’s documentation from a qualified healthcare provider.
