Overview

At Deeper Signals, we believe your abilities β€” not external barriers β€” should determine your performance. We are committed to making our assessments accessible to everyone.

Individuals with physical disabilities, chronic health conditions, learning differences, or neurodivergent traits can request accommodations to participate fairly in assessments.


Requesting accommodations

To request accommodations:

  1. Inform your test administrator as early as possible (ideally one week before).

  2. Describe your specific needs.

  3. Provide any requested documentation.

  4. Confirm arrangements before your assessment.

Your administrator will work with you to understand your needs and implement accommodations. While advance notice is helpful, we understand that needs may arise unexpectedly and will do our best to support last-minute requests.
