I have an external support worker who will be attending campus and classes with me. Do I need to register their attendance with anyone?

UPDATED 19 MAR 2026 | 2:54AM

External support workers need to be registered with AccessAbility Services.  If the student has a CAP, external support workers will be recorded as a support. If an External Support Worker is attending classes in person or online, AccessAbility Services will need to liaise with Unit Coordinators to review matters such as venue capacity, safety equipment, training requirements, access to restricted areas of campus, online participation, and any other special approval that they may require.
