Course Description

FELTG’s annual Reasonable Accommodation webinar series returns in 2024 with new and updated material. We kick off the series with a webinar that lays the important groundwork necessary to understand how to successfully manage disability accommodation requests.

This 60-minute class offers and an overview of the current state of disability law and details how the ADA, ADAAA, and Rehabilitation Act apply to qualified Federal employees with disabilities. This overview will cover the legal steps required when an employee requests an accommodation, and the information the employee must provide in order to be granted an accommodation.

Attendees will learn how to:

  • Understand the process for making disability determinations.
  • Discuss what “qualified individual” actually means.
  • Explain the purpose of the interactive process.

Course Description

There is no reason to fear the reasonable accommodation process. Yet many Federal supervisors do. They’re not alone. Reasonable Accommodation Coordinators, HR and EEO professionals, program managers and even attorney/advisors have approached reasonable accommodation requests with a bit of trepidation.

FELTG’s annual Reasonable Accommodation webinar series returns in 2024 with all-new updates, laying the important groundwork to make the process of managing requests for accommodation (for disability, pregnancy, or religion) a positive one – for you, the employee, and the agency.

For 2024, we offer six 60-minute sessions that will give the proper framework for providing accommodations for people who are entitled, along with the confidence to do so. And you will have the skills necessary to avoid the pitfalls that lead to unwanted findings of failure to accommodate. FELTG’s experienced instructors will allot time for your reasonable accommodation questions.

This series meets the President’s mandate to provide training on diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility in the Federal workplace.
