          Disability Services.
·         Send your documentation to to Disability Services, Terrell Building, Room 219 located on the
          Central Campus.
 
After your documentation has been reviewed an appointment will be set up for you to meet with a Counselor. In the meeting your counselor will:
 
·        Review your documentation with you
·        Review Disability Counseling Services Policies
         Go over your goals at CPCC

·        Discuss appropriate accommodations                                                                               
·        Complete needed forms                                                                                                    
·        Schedule a follow up appointment

 
Once an Accommodation Form is completed the student will need to:
 
·        Have each instructor sign the form and if appropriate the Testing Center. It is very important
         that all forms are signed and returned to Disability Counseling Services.
·        The counselor will contact the student's instructor(s) to inform them that you are registered
         with Disability Services and what accommodations are needed.  Also, that the student will
         bring the instructor(s) the accommodations form to be signed and returned to the Disability
         Counselor.  This can also be done via e-mail.
·        If appropriate, schedule a meeting with Alisha Hankerson, Testing and Technology Lab 
         Facilitator, to discuss your test schedule and books in alternative format.
