following is a list of some of their most important responsibilities:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Make themselves available to students to discuss the implementation of the accommodations and adjustments and not the diagnosis or specific disability.<\/li>\n<li>Ensure that the accommodations listed on the CDHP Accommodation Memorandum are implemented timely (within 3 business days) and with fidelity.<\/li>\n<li>Consult with appropriate faculty and CDHP staff when the approved accommodations would impede conducting the fundamentals of the faculty member\u2019s curriculum so that equally effective alternative accommodations can be discussed.<\/li>\n<li>Deny a request for accommodation that CDHP has not approved and refer the student back to the Center for assessment.<\/li>\n<li>Participate in a collaborative discussion with CDHP about the delivery of accommodations.<\/li>\n<li>Maintain confidentiality of the Accommodation Memorandum, correspondence, and communication regarding the student\u2019s disability.<\/li>\n<li>Provide CDHP with timely and accurate information regarding exams.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n
