The Center for Assistive Technology and Environmental Access (CATEA) at Georgia Tech offers a new course: Workplace Accommodations: Processes and Tools starting October 4, 2011.  It will run as a series of three webcasts on subsequent Tuesdays, from 12:00-2:00 PM (Eastern).

From CATEA: “The course will cover workplace accommodations that can be constructed, installed, or implemented to enhance an individual’s safety and function in the workplace.  This course provides an overview of functional barriers commonly experienced in the workplace, legal and policy issues that affect provision of services, and AT and universal design strategies to improve performance of work activities. The course provides resources for assessing, identifying and implementing accommodation needs.

This beginning-to-intermediate-level course is appropriate for people providing rehabilitation services as well as for employers.  Continuing education credits will be provided.
