The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) covers various aspects of providing reasonable accommodation for individuals with disabilities in the workplace, like ensuring accessibility in public spaces, transportation and communication services.

The ability to use any facility begins in the parking areas used by occupants, and consists of the parking spaces, curb cuts, walkways, stairs, ramps and other pathways, by which building users exit their vehicles and make their way to the building.

Inside, accessibility paths include entry doors, hallways, elevators and so forth, the interior streets and paths used to move through the facility. Accessibility concerns include far more than just physical mobility issues, but for the purpose of this 2 hour course, that is where we will focus.

What do we need to do, to let physically challenged occupants get in and get out?
