Abstract:This report provides information about the findings of an investigation of the needs and concerns of campus-based professionals who provide disability-related supports and services to postsecondary students. It is a companion to Adaptech's landmark 1999 study where they investigated the computer technology experiences of over 800 Canadian college and university students with disabilities.

Topics in this report include: accessibility of online distance education; level of collaboration between these professionals and the instructional technology community on campus; degree to which issues of access to instructional technologies by persons with disabilities are addressed in faculty professional development; and accountability for providing computer-related supports to employees with disabilities on campus.
