Sessions are scheduled from 1:00 to 2:30 pm Central Time (90 minute sessions) and will be real-time captioned on the Great Lakes ADA Center web site. A written transcript and digital recording of each session is archived on the Great Lakes web site.
Many business owners state that they want to make their business accessible but don't know where to start. The ADA Guide to Small Business produced by the US Department of Justice outlines some basic activities that a business can do to determine whether or not they are meeting the requirements of the ADA. Conducting a review of the physical accessibility of a facility can be an overwhelming task. Determining the scope of the review as well as potential accessibility solutions can stymie even the most seasoned businessperson. Many give up out of frustration. Join our speaker as he outlines the steps to be taken when initiating a self-assessment as well as tools and resources that are available. AIA and CRCC Credit is available for this session with verification of attendance. If you wish to participate on this session, you may register online.
