INFORMATION
Training Overview

Not Following the ADA Interactive Process can Bring Lawsuits. Learn how to comply with the 2024 laws and regulations.

Requests for reasonable accommodations under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) continue to increase. At the same time, government regulators are scrutinizing employers to ensure they comply with evolving laws and regulations.


You need to understand how the ADA applies to specific employees, applicants, and situations. You are required to follow an “interactive process” to determine what “reasonable” accommodations must be made. The EEOC and courts provide conflicting and evolving guidance about the requirements.
