Disability Assessment Services for Higher Education Providers
Partner with us to deliver outstanding and inclusive disability support for your higher education students and staff. Our specialist disability assessment services help universities ensure inclusivity, accessibility, and compliance – helping students and staff to thrive.
Comprehensive Disability Services for Universities and Colleges
Our specialist disability assessment services ensure students receive the right adjustments through the Disabled Students’ Allowance (DSA) and that staff access workplace support via Access to Work.
Whatever your requirements, we offer expert solutions designed around your institution’s priorities that are designed to support inclusivity and accessibility across the academic community – while ensuring compliance with national funding bodies and workplace support schemes.
Specialist DSA Assessments
Specialist Disability Assessments for Research Council-Funded Students
Universities hosting students funded by UK Research Councils (e.g., UKRI, AHRC, ESRC, ICASE, EPSRC) must ensure these students receive support equivalent to DSA provisions. Our disability assessment services replicate DSA reporting structures, delivering detailed, evidence-based reports that facilitate seamless funding approvals.
This means your students benefit from timely, appropriate support – while your university meets compliance obligations with ease.
Disability Assessments for Apprentices and Work-Based Learners
We work closely with universities running apprenticeship programmes to provide targeted disability assessments. Each report we produce is aligned with government guidelines, ensuring your apprentices access the reasonable adjustments and funding they need to excel throughout their training.
Supporting University Staff Through Disability Assessments and Access to Work
Inclusive universities don’t just focus on students, they champion their staff too. Yorlinc offers comprehensive disability assessment services for university employees, including free end-to-end guidance on Access to Work applications.
Our workplace assessments identify practical adjustments, supported by holistic reports with clear, actionable recommendations. This improves productivity, staff wellbeing, and retention, while also protecting your institution from compliance risks.
