VRCs play an essential role in facilitating successful reasonable accommodation outcomes between applicants/employees and employers throughout the employment process. In individual cases, the VRC can help build the applicant/employee's confidence in requesting reasonable accommodation. For employers making commitments toward more diverse and inclusive workplaces, the VRC can serve as a collaborative partner to meet those goals.

Part I of the webinar series will offer guidance and a general overview about what a VRC needs to know about reasonable accommodations and the interactive process under Title I of the ADA. The VRC will learn how to coach qualified individuals with disabilities on how to facilitate an open and honest dialogue with potential and current employers.

Part II of the webinar series will cover examples and case studies showing how the VRC can maximize successful outcomes by collaborating with applicants/employees and employers. See more about session 2 here.

Participants have the option of obtaining 1.5 CRCC credits or a Letter of Attendance.  Live Closed Captioning will be provided for this webinar.
