The procedure for requesting accommodation
The procedure for making study and examination accommodations :
In order to benefit from study or examination arrangements, students must follow the procedure in force at the University of Poitiers.
It is also the SHE and the SSE that accompany the students with disabilities to the delocalized sites (Futuroscope, Châtellerault, Niort, Angoulême, Segonzac).
For Niort and Angoulême, these appointments are made by telephone or video. An additional appointment must be scheduled with the site nurse (before the appointment with the SSE)
- Niort: Maxime GAUTIER
- Angoulême : Nathalie COSNARD
The detailed procedure:
1. Interview with the disability service: The student must make an appointment with the disability service for an evaluation of his/her difficulties and needs in order to make a request for accommodation. During this first meeting with the support officer, the student discusses the difficulties caused by his or her disability, his or her needs, the accommodations he or she was able to obtain in secondary school, but it is also an opportunity to discuss his or her MDPH recognition, housing, scholarships, etc.
2. Medical visit: the student must make an appointment with a doctor from the students health service (SSE) who will give a medical opinion and recommend study accommodations. A medical certificate is then handed to the student who is responsible for bringing it to the disability service. This step is essential in the procedure. It should be noted that the SSE doctors have been delegated by the CDPAH to make decisions regarding study accommodations in higher education.
3. Preparation and validation of the notification: the student must then wait for the preparation and validation of the accommodation notification. Indeed, it takes time for the disability service (which draws up the document) and the teaching staff (via the disability referents/correspondents) to study, validate and sign the document. The disability officer also signs the document, by delegation from the President of the University. A multidisciplinary meeting may be organised with the teaching staff in the event of difficulties linked to the implementation of the arrangements or in the event of a particular situation of the student.
4. Application of the notification: the notification is sent to the student, but also to the disability advisor and the head of the schooling department of the UFR concerned. The UFR must inform the teaching staff of the arrangements to be made and implemented for courses and examinations. A notification is a document formalising a legal obligation for the University, it is valid for one academic year (or one semester) and must be renewed each year.
