Accommodating People with Disabilities

The Accommodating People with Disabilities online training program for faculty and supervisory staff members is part of the University's ongoing efforts to create a more inclusive and accessible learning and working environment, and is designed to assist you in performing your specific responsibilities under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the UMD Disability and Accessibility Policy and Procedures. This program provides an overview of disability discrimination laws.

After completing this program, you will be able to navigate the process of accommodating qualified applicants and employees with disabilities.
