This workshop, based on the 2008 Americans with Disabilities Amendments Act, gives learners an opportunity to understand the laws under the ADA Amendments Act (ADAAA). Learners will increase their understanding of the original intent of the definition of disability, factors that qualify an individual as disabled, and information about the complaint process and the reasonable accommodation request process. Participants will:

• Enrich knowledge about employment laws specific to Americans with disabilities.
• Become familiar with the university's process regarding employees with disabilities. 
• Discuss and practice finding solutions for various accommodation needs.

This workshop is ideal for all Kent State faculty and staff.

This workshop counts toward 2.5 hours of your annual Beyond Compliance requirement.
