    Confirming\/Adding Disability Information<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    The <\/strong>Profile tab of your Ventus Student Dashboard contains your personal and disability details.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    To verify your personal and disability details…<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. In the top menu, select Profile.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Under the Personal Details and Disability Details headings, review your information to ensure accuracy. If you do discover inaccurate information:\n
        \n
      1. under \u201cDisability Details\u201d (for disability information and documentation that you have already shared with the PMC), contact your Disabilities Coordinator with details of what is missing or inaccurate.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. under \u201cPersonal Details\u201d, make any necessary changes through Carleton Central.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        To add disability information and\/or documentation…<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        1. On the Profile tab, click the blue \u201cAdd disability information\u201d button (on the right side of the screen opposite the Disability details heading).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        2. In the \u201cAdd disability information\u201d dialog box, select the Disability type, accessing the list of disabilities by clicking the down arrow.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        3. Add details in the \u201cdescribe your disability (optional)\u201d text field.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        4. In the \u201cIs this condition permanent?\u201d field, click the down arrow for the Yes\/No options.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        5. If you chose \u201cNo\u201d to the question above and know how long the disability will last, enter the timeframe in the \u201cExpected duration of disability (if known)\u201d field. If you chose \u201cYes\u201d to the question above, this field disappears.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        6. In the \u201cDocumentation\u201d field, click the down arrow for the options to attach documentation, fax it, mail it or drop it off. If you choose the \u201cwill attach file\u201d option, the \u201cAdd attachment(s)\u201d upload functionality appears.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        7. Click the \u201cBrowse\u201d button to find the documentation on your computer and then click the \u201cOpen\u201d button.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        8. If there are multiple files, click the blue \u201cAdd another file\u201d button to add each individual file. If you make a mistake and add the wrong file, you can click the yellow \u201cRemove\u201d button to delete it and browse again.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        9. Click the green \u201cAdd disability information\u201d button.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        10. Back on the profile page, verify that the disability and its supporting documentation has been added. It will be listed as \u201cunconfirmed\u201d until your coordinator receives and reviews the documentation. Note that if you had forgotten to upload supporting documentation, you can still add it afterwards by clicking the blue \u201cadd attachments\u201d button next to that listed disability.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          Template Accommodations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

          Your template accommodations are the list of approved accommodations that are associated with your user profile and have been previously established in discussion with your PMC Coordinator.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

          When you log into Ventus for the first time, you should review the template <\/span>accommodations available to you in each course to ensure that the accommodations you have used in the past (if you are a returning PMC student) or the accommodations that you established with your coordinator during your intake (for new PMC students) are available for you to select. Please note that unless included in your accommodations requests on a per course basis, template accommodations won\u2019t be applied to your courses.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

          To review your template accommodations…<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          1. Navigate to the Accommodations tab; the default view of your Course List will reflect the current term.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          2. Select each course that you are registered for and review the template accommodations available to you for each one.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          3. Make note of any inaccuracies (i.e. usual accommodations missing or other accommodations added which hadn’t been part of the template in the past) and contact your Disabilities Coordinator with details of what is missing or inaccurate.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

            Back to Top<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Technical Support<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

            Contact the ITS Service Desk<\/a> if you are experiencing difficulty setting up your Ventus account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
