Description: Interested in earning your Accessibility Certification? Earn your Accessibility Certification in just one day. Join us for our new comprehensive workshop that explores the why, who, and how of disability services for students in higher education. This training will provide faculty and staff with a more in-depth understanding of the legal obligations associated with their role, as well as tools and resources to create best practices to ensure equal access for students with disabilities. Lunch will be provided for all those who register.
Please Note: The UAB Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL) presents workshops on teaching practice for UAB faculty (including adjunct instructors), pre-approved graduate students who are currently under contract to teach academic courses at UAB, and teaching staff. Academic advisors and staff who work directly with students are also approved to come to non-teaching focused workshops. CTL workshops are not intended for UAB graduate or undergraduate students.
CTL Point Value: 100,000pts. Must attend entire day to receive the Accessibility certificate.
