المستخلص

The objective of this study is to learn about stakeholders'' lived experiences and interpretations of the notion of learning difficulty in higher education.
The aims of this study in particular are to:

Understand the phrase Learning Disabilities Knowing and Understanding.
Find out how young people with disabilities are cared for in Saudi Arabia.
Know how to cope with university learning issues.
Reveal how specific programmes are offered to people with learning challenges.

The study showed that government support could be one of the most crucial factors of service growth as it has been sponsoring education since the Kingdom was founded, and has had an impact on the acceptance of Saudi society regarding people with disabilities.
The government has also contributed financially to the area of special education. In the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the field of special education has progressed over a remarkably short period. In Saudi Arabia, despite the increasing development of services for learning for disabled pupils, identifying students remains a concern.
