By applying ADA-compliant solutions that exceed the minimum standards without adding additional costs to the project, these professionals can avoid costly after-the-fact resolutions and protect themselves from potential access-related complaints or litigation. This course is a great introduction to the ADA Standards or as a refresher course for those with previous knowledge on the subject matter. Prerequisite Knowledge: Great for new or experienced professionals.
