Faculty/Staff

Information and Resources

Would your courses work for Elevate students?

Elevate, NC State’s new inclusive post-secondary education program, seeks to partner with faculty from across campus so students in the program can take courses from all colleges. We are seeking a range of courses in all disciplines that students in Elevate can take. Elevate is a four-year certificate program for students with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD); and as an instructor of Elevate students, you will support their development and help equip them with career and occupational skills.

Faculty partners’ roles and responsibilities:

  • Students will be auditing your course and are non-degree seeking.
  • Treat the student as you would any student.
  • Implement student accommodations and modifications.
  • Partner with Elevate staff to increase access to coursework and social development within your courses.

Elevate staff will provide faculty partners support by:

  • Modifying your syllabus based on the individual needs of the student.
  • Collaborating with you to create Inclusive Learning Contracts as needed.
  • Ongoing support, guidance and check-ins.
  • Training on inclusive teaching practices, differentiated instruction to name a few.
  • Workshops on understanding and including students with IDD in your classrooms.
