This is Frederic Fovet’s professional site. Frederic is an academic, researcher, consultant and UDL & Inclusion specialist. Over the period of his doctorate, Frederic held the position of Director of the Office for Students with Disabilities at McGill. During close to four years he was responsible for triggering and sustaining, from that office, a campus-wide move towards UDL implementation. His PhD itself focuses on students in K-12 who feel marginalized and alienated by their school experience. Within this research dimension too he has a keen interest in UDL’s potential for inclusion. Frederic provides UDL consultancy in both the K-12 and post-secondary fields. He was instigator, and program chair, of the first Pan-Canadian conference on UDL which took place in Montreal in May 2015: Universal Design for Learning: Canadian Perspectives.
