Glossary of Terms for Academic Integration Plans

An Academic Integration Plan (AIP) stipulates the reasonable adjustments that need to be implemented by relevant UWS academic, examination and administrative staff. Each session, each students' AIP is revised to ensure the strategies meet the current needs of the student.

A Glossary of Terms has developed to provide academics and staff with an  explanation of the reasonable adjustments stipulated in the student's Academic Integration Plan. It is strongly recommended that Academics and other relevant staff familiarise themselves with the Glossary of Terms to ensure they understand what is required prior to implmentation of the AIP. The Glossary of Terms should be read in conjunction with the AIP.
