Training Academy Overview

• Enrollment in the ADA Coordinator Training Certification Program. ADA-Indiana will pay the registration fee of each participant to enroll in the ADA Coordinator Training Certification Program (ACTCP) at the Great Plains ADA Center (visit www.adacoordinator.org for more information). The ACTCP is a 40-credit hour program that “verifies that participants have completed training in required content areas and have a depth of knowledge in ADA issues.” Generally, ACTCP participants should be able to complete a substantial part of the program by attending one National ADA Symposium and completing the remainder of the credits utilizing the free online training offered through the ADA National Network.
  
  
• Support to attend the National ADA Symposium in 2021. ADA-Indiana will provide a partial financial stipend to support Training Academy participants to attend the National ADA Symposium in 2021 (see www.adasymposium.org). 
  
  
• Participation in the ADA-Indiana. The ADA Training Academy participants will attend and participate in ADA-Indiana monthly meetings. Throughout the program year, Academy members will participate in activities hosted by ADA-Indiana including monthly meetings and training events.
