Training Academy Overview

• Enrollment in the ADA Coordinator Training Certification Program. ADA-Indiana supported the enrollment of participants into the ADA Coordinator Training Certification Program (ACTCP) hosted by 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 Virtual National ADA Symposium in 2022. ADA-Indiana provided a financial stipend to support Training Academy participants to attend the National ADA Symposium in May 2022 (see www.adasymposium.org). 
  
  
• Participation in the ADA-Indiana. ADA Training Academy members participated in ADA-Indiana activities, including monthly meetings and other events.

ADA Training Academy Participants

During the course of the ADA Training Academy, ADA-Indiana worked with individuals from several different communities. Each community team had at least one “ADA Coordinator” from the community (either at city, town, or county level), one person with a disability living in the community, and representation from disability organizations serving the community such as a Center for Independent Living.
