for Success: A Resource Guide for College Representatives of
the College Committee on Disability Issues summarizes and documents
the background and progression of services to students with disabilities
in the Colleges of Applied Arts and Technology. Each section focuses
on either background or resource information that is essential to
your role as a representative, as well as within your college community.
The College Committee on Disability Issues has been in existence
since 1987 and has aided colleges with improvements for access.
Consequently, as a member of this very active College Committee,
you will participate in the development and communication of appropriate
recommendations regarding college services to students with disabilities.
We share a common goal to assist students and to recommend the
best practices for access and accommodation. Each member of CCDI
has significant knowledge and we look forward to future contributions.

Interpreter's Provincial Guidelines:
The College Committee on Disability Issues (CCDI) recognizes the
responsibility inherent in providing support services to students
who are Deaf and Hard of Hearing.
In September 1998, CCDI struck a committee of service providers
who worked largely with students who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing.
The committee was mandated by CCDI to develop a policy that would
begin to identify and implement provincial standards for service
delivery to these students.
This manual focuses on interpreter, intervener, real time captioning
and computerized notetaking services provided by staff and contract
personnel at Ontario colleges. CCDI service providers are encouraged
to use this manual as a guideline for establishing and supervising
services in their institutions.

The Delta Screener: Adult LD Screening Tool:
This document was developed by the Learning Disability Special Interest
Group of the College Committee on Disability Issues (CCDI) as a
screening tool for adults at risk for learning disabilities.
It was developed for use by a variety of post-secondary practitioners,
including counsellors, disability advisors, learning disability
specialists, as well as professionals working with adults experiencing
learning problems.
It is designed to be used as part of a guided interview collecting
information about a client's educational history, early development,
medical history, family history, employment and general life skills.
Items in the screening questionnaire are based on the expertise
of many professionals working in the post-secondary system. Some
information was adapted from screening questionnaires developed
by: Destination Literacy, Learning Disability Association of Canada;
Carol Herriot at the University of Guelph; and the University of
Minnesota.
Special thanks to staff at Cambrian and Connestoga College who
put many hours into the development of this questionnaire.
Facts about the Delta Screener
It is NOT a formal diagnostic test
It summarizes learning strengths and challenges
It is based on a self-report by the client
There is no cost to the client to complete the Screener
It requires approximately one to two hours to complete
Information provided can be used by the counsellor/professional
to assist the client in making decisions regarding future employment
or training
Results could possibly indicate the need for more thorough, formal
testing
