What type of specific adjustments can I request?

Based on your disability or medical condition and the difficulties it may pose in a testing situation, you will be asked to inform EPSO about the type of adjustments that would be useful for you.

On a case-by-case basis - taking into consideration your supporting documentation and EPSO’s expertise built in the field of reasonable accommodations of selection tests to candidates with specific needs - you will be offered accommodations per type of test you will need to sit.
