National Bureau for Students with Disabilities (SKILL Website)

permalink email thisUsers might already be familiar with the Skill Website www.skill.org.uk - a link is included in the resources list above. However, it might be helpful to know that the site includes a range of information booklets for disabled students, trainees and jobseekers, including one on the topic on whether or not, how and when to disclose any disability to a potential employer. I found these to be a useful resource for Careers Advisers too, as it isn't an area in which I feel especially confident giving advice.
Elsewhere on the site are some student case studies where individuals talk about their experiences of university life which gave me some insight into the issues faced by the students concerned, and the particular skills and creativity that they employed to address them - food for thought!
The information booklets are at: http://www.skill.org.uk/info/infosheets.asp
