Not sure of what state you are in, but I believe that the department of
human services has a branch in your state associated with LD students.
If the students are diagnosed as having a disability, the state DHS
should offer a way to accommodate the students. If you are and ABE
instructor and your students in your program have been referred to you
by the local DHS office, then they should have a system to address their
needs. I believe that DHS offices are part of the local workforce
commissions that refer you students. I would try to contact one of their
counselors.

Subject: [LearningDisabilities 2533] Testing

 

I was wondering if anyone had any good referrals for students who can't
afford LD testing?  I have several students
at the poverty level who need accommodations for the GED (untimed
testing etc.) and can't possibly afford the $500.00 for testing.
