MyBMAC for Faculty

 

The Bob Murphy Access Center (BMAC) is excited to announce the launch of MyBMAC, an interactive web-based database which operates by providing a streamlined accommodation process that centralizes the communication of accommodation requests/approval between students, faculty, and BMAC staff. MyBMAC is accessible through the Single Sign-On (SSO) MyBMAC chiclet.

Fall 2022 Accommodations Updates

BMAC has streamlined a new process for disability-related excused absences and extensions of individual assignments accommodations. Students will be asked to consult with their individual faculty to confirm implementation for these accommodations, which will then be submitted as a written agreement within MyBMAC. Note: if the student fails to initiate and complete this process, the accommodation(s) will not be implemented.

Please review the Extensions of Individual Assignments and Disability-Related Excused Absences Policy and Guidelines documents for more details about this new process and contact bmac@csulb.edu regarding any questions/concerns.
