Abstract
The increase in students with disabilities in Australian tertiary education settings has placed significant stress on institutions to provide adequate and appropriate support. Disability liaison officers have the responsibility on many Australian campuses but little is known about their training needs and concerns. This study surveyed disability liaison officers about their training needs and concerns. The majority of respondents indicated a need for availability of further training as well as concerns related to the resources available to adequately support students with disabilities. There is a need for the development of appropriate training and for policies that enable adequate resourcing of students with support needs.
