As more students with learning disabilities pursue higher education, college and university faculty are faced with facilitating courses that must meet the needs of diverse learners. In contrast to the teaching criteria for K-12 teachers, postsecondary education professors are hired for their subject matter expertise without any teaching licensure requirements (Hansen, 2013; Hansen & Dawson, 2020). Due to the different teaching requirements, the following question comes to mind: How prepared are faculty for teaching students with learning disabilities? This study examined the faculty's perception of preparedness for teaching college students with learning disabilities. For the study, faculty preparedness was defined as having the requisite learning disability knowledge, attitude and perception, and teacher self-efficacy beliefs needed to support students with learning disabilities in an inclusive learning environment. The literature explored in this study led to qualitatively investigating these three elements of preparedness. This study used the qualitative phenomenology method to gain insight into the faculty's perception of their preparedness to teach students with learning disabilities. A semistructured interview was used to collect data from seven faculty members from a small Christian college in eastern coastal Virginia. The findings showed that the faculty perceived their preparedness as average with the following emerging themes: (a) self-guided collaboration for learning disability knowledge, (b) aware and invested attitudes and perceptions, and (c) intermediate teacher self-efficacy beliefs. This study contributes to the field of faculty development by providing a greater understanding of faculty's perception of preparedness for teaching students with learning disabilities.
