DRP Academy will take a new shape this Fall 2026
becoming more interactive and available to more DRP's and leaders. We look forward to sharing this information in September !

Didactic Instruction: Participants gain foundational knowledge in disability law, institutional policies, and principles of inclusive education, forming the groundwork for understanding accommodations in health professions training.

Self-Directed Learning: Learners are encouraged to explore tailored materials at their own pace, deepening their understanding of key concepts and fostering critical thinking around complex scenarios.

Simulated Practice: Through simulated environments, participants engage in realistic scenarios, allowing them to apply theoretical knowledge in a controlled setting and refine decision-making processes.

Standardized Student Interactions: Role-playing with standardized students provides participants with opportunities to practice effective communication, empathy, and problem-solving in determining appropriate accommodations.

Case-Based Learning: Real-world cases offer an interactive platform to develop analytical and legal reasoning skills. Participants work collaboratively to evaluate scenarios, identify barriers, and propose equitable and compliant solutions.

Post Academy Mentorship: Upon successful completion of the on-site components of the DRP Academy, each participant will be assigned to a mentor group that will meet once per month and be facilitated by an experienced health science DRP.
