About the Learning Specialist Program

Learning Specialists and Learning Strategists are trained to utilize the most up-to-date learning skills, tools and tactics available to assist in the acquisition of skills and knowledge. They provide individualized instruction for students with information processing disabilities. Learning Specialists and Strategists use specific teaching modalities that incorporate the needs of students with disabilities and take into consideration the specific strengths and weaknesses of diverse learners. Specialties include organization, time management and study skills. 

Learning Specialist Program Eligibility is an accommodation. The program is designed for Learning Specialists and Strategists to work with students or employees for a distinct amount of time for support and training so more support can be offered to those who need it. Students requesting use of the program should complete a Learning Specialist Program enrollment form, available from their Access Coordinator.
