The Center for Accessible Education (CAE) is now soliciting between 3-4 applications for its student vacant positions to its CAE Advisory Board. The CAE Advisory Board incorporates a variety of voices in the administration of CAE services and general campus access issues. The CAE Advisory Board provides a way for CAE to receive direct input from the UCLA community in order to:

1. Understand questions and concerns from faculty about providing accommodations;
2. Engage students, faculty, and instructors in improving the accommodation process at UCLA;
3. Help CAE better meet the needs of UCLA students with disabilities;
4. Provide a space for advocacy and leadership skill development for UCLA students with interests in disabilities;
5. Identify challenging accessibility issues and strategize with the Board to expand positive impact across campus to enhance the campus climate for the disability community at UCLA.

Please select the blue button titled "submit an application". Applications are to be submitted by Sunday, May 1 2021.
