What our students say
Continuing Studies in Disability Management

I have just completed my third year, majoring in Neuroscience with a minor in Health Studies. It has been a great pleasure being in the Introductory to Disability and Disability Management class (DISM 3010), and I would like to thank Karen Joudrey and the rest of the instructional team for a wonderful semester. As I thoroughly enjoyed this class, I have decided to pursue the Certificate in Disability Management, and I look forward to my future studies in this field.
The Disability Management Certificate is of value to me because it provides a meaningful perspective on disability, enabling me to advocate for and promote accessibility in public spaces, as well as support friends, family, and coworkers. It also provides me with a solid foundation to raise awareness about disabilities and disability management, which is crucial for my future career in the medical field. Lastly, the instructional team was invaluable in answering the questions I had and in creating a positive learning environment. Overall, the class was encouraging and educational.

Gain Tangible Skills

I completed the disability management program alongside my social work degree, and the program taught me the tangible skills to understand accommodation plans, disability in the workplace, workplace wellness, preventative health, and implementing helpful workplace programs such as stress management.
My favorite parts of the program were the challenging cases that had to make me think outside of the box on how I would manage that situation. Now, part of my social work includes disability management.

Learn Best Practices

The knowledge that I gained from ¶¶ÒùÊÓÆµâ€™s Certificate in Disability Management program will provide me with lifelong benefits. From this program of study, I have learned best practices regarding how to help individuals return safely, effectively, and efficiently to maximum functioning. Furthermore, I have expanded my knowledge on how to assert both my own rights and the rights of others to accommodation within the workplace. I believe this program is an asset to anyone in a helping profession and for anyone in general. All employees can benefit from knowing their right to accommodation and the options available to them.

Developed Writing Skills

My actuarial science degree required few written-based assignments. My Certificate in Disability Management gave me the demonstrated written communication skills I needed to confidently apply for the Corporate Residency MBA program. My academic advisors have said that the Certificate in Disability Management is a unique aspect of my application that I should emphasize as much as possible.
