What happens at a Needs Assessment meeting?
The needs assessment meeting is informal and will take approximately 1 – 1 ½ hours and will take place in one of our fully equipped assessment centres within the One Elmwood Student Centre.
During your needs assessment, your assessor will demonstrate and allow you to evaluate software, specialist equipment and technology to determine the best possible solutions to help overcome any difficulties you may experience.
The assessor may also discuss and recommend other types of support for example mentoring or mental health support and specialist tutoring.
