The Great Lakes ADA Center and other members of the ADA National Network host several free webinar series throughout the year. These training webinars provide training in specialized areas including legal, accessible technology, built environment, healthcare, and emergency preparedness.
If you have a question about your rights or obligations under the Americans with Disabilities Act, call the Great Lakes ADA Center: (800) 949-4232.
The sessions are free, but registration is required. While ADA-Indiana does not coordinate the webinar sessions, we are big fans so we would be happy to answer any questions you might have about the webinar sessions. (The caveat is that the information will be based on our own experience.)
The webinars are delivered using the popular web conferencing platform Zoom. As you might expect, close attention is paid to the accessibility of the webinars including live captioning, materials in alternative formats, and other accommodations upon request.
