Survey reviews COVID‐19‐based disruptions for students with disabilities

Abstract

In the wake of the rapid move to online learning in response to the COVID‐19 pandemic, the Association on Higher Education And Disability conducted a survey of higher education professionals who work with students with disabilities to better identify the barriers these students have faced. Of those who responded to the survey conducted in the spring and summer of 2020, 94% worked in a disability resource office, and the survey results are the first of three planned data‐collection efforts by AHEAD to detail how institutions are maintaining accessibility for students during the COVID‐19 pandemic.
