Dive into the world of Able@Dal orientation, a crucial resource for families and supporters of Dalhousie's Student Accessibility Centre students. But here's the catch: it's not just about orientation; it's about empowering you to support your student's journey.
Hosted by access advisors, faculty, and staff, this live and recorded session is your gateway to understanding the common challenges and triumphs of first-year students. You'll explore a range of topics, from navigating campus life to accessing essential resources. And this is the part most people miss: it's an opportunity to learn how to provide the best support, ensuring your student's first year is a success.
We understand that starting university can be a daunting experience, but with the right guidance, it can be an exciting and rewarding adventure. That's why we encourage you to attend this orientation, where you'll gain valuable insights and strategies to help your student thrive.
Here's the controversial bit: Should universities place more emphasis on family involvement in student support systems? Share your thoughts in the comments!
In addition to the orientation, the Student Accessibility Centre will host virtual information sessions before the academic year begins. These sessions will provide detailed insights into Able@Dal, the family and friends support network, and other virtual resources. Stay tuned for updates, as we'll be sharing more information here as it becomes available.
Remember, your involvement and support can make a significant difference in your student's university experience. So, mark your calendars and join us for these informative sessions!
