Managing note taking accommodations is expensive. For many disability services teams, a reliance on peer notetakers means costs that increase year on year, with no clear way to bring them under control without compromising student support.

In this case study webinar, Christian Yee, Auxiliary Services Supervisor at the University of California, Berkeley, shares how his team cut their annual note taking spend from a quarter of a million dollars, and kept cutting.

In this session, you'll:

  • Discover how UC Berkeley moved away from a costly peer notetaker model to a centralised, scalable approach
  • Learn the steps Christian took to secure institutional buy-in from faculty and leadership
  • Understand how to build a business case for change when budget is a key concern
  • Explore how centralising accommodations can improve consistency and reduce administrative pressure on your team
  • Apply lessons from UC Berkeley's implementation timeline to your own institutional context
