BDA Launches New Course for Employees in assisting Dyslexia
The British Dyslexia Association has developed a new course for employees. The course is designed to provide delegates with a range of strategies, techniques and approaches to increase personal effectiveness and efficiency across the core skills areas in the workplace.
This course is a reasonable adjustment for dyslexic employees and is funded by Access to Work, the Government Agency that deals with reasonable adjustments for all disabilities including, dyslexia.
There are no restrictions on how many individuals can receive the funding. As this course has only just been launched, it is only planned one course so far which is in London. However, BDA can come to you and will be planning a lot more courses in locations around the UK from January.
To apply for the funding, the individual doesn't have to have a diagnostic assessment to take up this or other opportunities that Access to Work will provide for, simply that they have difficulties or challenges in their work that would be typical of the difficulties dyslexia throws up.
The route way to get the course funded is to claim for support through Access to Work and to apply to go on the BDA course (see attached booking form).
At the same time, the individual needs to contact the Access to Work team for their location (area) and ask to speak to their Dyslexia Champion and explain that they want to go on the course. BDA will also notify Access to Work that they want to do it and it should then all come together. The individual will need to tell their line manager that they are looking at this support as Access to Work will refund them for the course.
To find your Access to Work office you will need to go to the following link: http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/DisabledPeople/Employmentsupport/WorkSchemesAndProgrammes/DG_173083
