| Abstract: |
There is an increasing expectation of state-of-the-art services for college students with disabilities. Although access to postsecondary education has resulted in positive outcomes for students with disabilities, there has been little validation of services that should be available to students with disabilities. This study sought to identify and validate Performance Indicators that experts agree foster access to postsecondary education. The results identified 90 Performance Indicators that are essential "best practices" for disability services in higher education. The findings provide direction for institutions of higher education to implement and validate their services for students with disabilities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
