Information For Faculty & Staff
What is the Faculty Portal?
Due to complications with the integration of Workday and the CLASS accommodation management software, the distribution of accommodation letters for the fall 2024 semester will be delayed. Your students’ accommodation information may or may not be in the faculty portal until the integration has been fixed and students request letters. This may impact your ability to complete some flex plans in the portal. In the meantime, please contact CLASS directly if you have any specific concerns or questions. Thank you for your patience.
The Faculty Portal is a convenient way to see all of the students who have requested accommodations for your classes. You will receive their individual student notification letters by email and can use the Portal to check their accommodations at any time. You can also use the portal to complete additional student agreements, like a Classroom Attendance Consideration Flex Plan.
About a week before classes start each semester, faculty will be able to access the faculty portal and view student accommodations. Please note that student accommodations may be approved and added to the portal throughout the semester.
Remember:
- Login to the Faculty Portal using your Wake Forest email account
- Contact CLASS (class@wfu.edu, 336-758-5929) with any questions
How does the Student Accommodation Process Work?
Students who request academic accommodations are required to disclose their disability and provide documentation of their disability to support their request to the Center for Learning, Access, and Student Success. Once students are determined to be eligible for reasonable accommodations, they will request their accommodations for each course. When the student completes a request for your course, you will receive an email notification. Students are encouraged to schedule an appointment with each faculty member (or their graduate/professional school liaisons) to discuss implementation of their accommodation(s).
