What are the differences between accommodations, alternative assignments, and temporary accommodations?
1) Candidates with disabilities can request special accommodations by submitting the Accommodations Request Form.
2) Candidates who will be out of work for a time-limited period can request alternative assignments by submitting the Alternative Assignments Request Form.
3) Candidates who need accommodations for their coursework for a time-limited period (often due to medical reasons) can request temporary accommodations by submitting the Accommodations Request Form.
4) Candidates who need accommodations and will be out of work for a time-limited period can request both temporary accommodations and alternative assignments by submitting the Alternative Assignments Request Form.
The image below illustrates the different processes candidates may request through the Office of Accessibility.
