Study on the Postsecondary Education Experience of Persons with Disabilities in Canada
The Adaptech Research Network is conducting a research study called Study on the Postsecondary Education Experience of Persons with Disabilities in Canada. The study is funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC) and is carried out by researchers at Dawson College and McGill University. The purpose of this study is to identify environmental, financial, personal and other factors that help or pose barriers to students with visible and non-visible disabilities pursuing a college or university education in Canada. We are also interested in the transition to employment.
July 15, 2010: We have completed collecting data from students, recent graduates and recent leavers with disabilities from colleges and universities across the country.
