# How do I apply for a reasonable adjustment or special consideration?

[Reasonable adjustments](https://8422484.hs-sites.com/knowledge/what-is-a-reasonable-adjustment-apprentices-learners?hsLang=en) and [special considerations](https://8422484.hs-sites.com/knowledge/what-is-a-special-consideration-learners-apprentices?hsLang=en) are granted only in specific cases where they are needed.

If you feel you fit into that category, you should talk to your centre/training provider to understand the options available to you and the processes they need to take to apply for the relevant allowances.

More information can be found in our [Reasonable Adjustments and Special Considerations](https://www.tquk.org/quality/?hsLang=en) policy.
