GOVERNING PRINCIPLES
1. SAIT is committed to promoting the inclusion and full participation of students with disabilities, so that all students can access the learning environment with dignity and without impediment.
2. SAIT’s principles of inclusion include: a) Promoting inclusive design in its facilities, programs, courses and services. b) Removing physical, attitudinal and systemic barriers. c) Reasonably accommodating remaining student needs up to the point of undue hardship. The onus is on SAIT to establish that a requested accommodation cannot be accommodated due to undue hardship. d) Recognizing that a student’s accommodations may need to change over the course of the student’s studies at SAIT.
3. SAIT will provide education to the SAIT community about reasonable accommodations and the accommodations process.
