MacEwan University’s Disability Studies: Leadership and Community diploma is recognized throughout Alberta as a Centre for Excellence in disability studies.
Starting with the firm belief that people with disabilities are integral members of our society, we help develop diverse and inclusive neighborhoods that enable people with disabilities to exercise their rights and participate fully as citizens. Encouraging and supporting these individuals as they become contributing members of the community is a rewarding and challenging career.
Our graduates have the skills to take an active role in creating inclusive communities as well as managing and effecting change.
Program ChangeIn Fall 2013, the Disability Studies: Leadership and Community (DSLC) program of study will change. Admission to DSLC will require MacEwan University's Special Needs Educational Assistant (SNEA) certificate (or equivalent). Of the 65 credits required to complete the DSLC diploma, 30 credits will be applied from the SNEA certificate (or equivalent).For Fall 2012, prospective DSLC students should apply to the SNEA program. After graduation from SNEA, students will apply for Fall 2013 admission to DSLC. Students who follow this path will hold both the SNEA certificate and the DSLC diploma when they graduate. SNEA (or equivalent) graduates will be eligible for Fall 2013 admission to DSLC. |
