U.S. Access Board Webinar: From Standards to Support: Understanding the Access Board’s Role in Accessibility
Have you previously attended our webinars or reached out with questions and training about accessibility? You might be surprised to learn that some questions may be outside the scope of the U.S. Access Board’s Office of Information and Technical Services (OTIS). Join us for this informative webinar on Thursday, January 9, 2025, from 2:30 – 4:00 p.m. (ET), where we’ll explore the U.S. Access Board’s crucial role in creating, training, and enforcing accessibility standards for everything from buildings and public spaces to transportation and information and communication technology. Plus, we’ll explain areas in which other federal agencies lead and enforce specific accessibility standards. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to understand the full landscape of accessibility!
For more information or to register, visit the Great Lakes ADA Center’s webinar webpage. All webinars include video remote interpreting (VRI) and real-time captioning. Questions can be submitted in advance of the session or can be posed during the live webinar. Webinar attendees can earn continuing education credits. The webinar series is hosted by the ADA National Network in cooperation with the Board. Archived copies of previous Board webinars are available on the site.
