This year has been filled with challenges that none of us could have predicted. Business as usual has been anything but usual! However, the strategies for advancing and understanding ADA rights and responsibilities are needed now more than ever.
The first fifty participants registered for all eight sessions will receive a special thank you package including – to make this a true “Lunch and Learn” - a $15 gift card for you to have lunch delivered on one day of your choice.
Instructions to Register:
Purchase breakouts individually at $15 each. Click Add to Cart, Indicate Number of Breakouts, Click Add to Cart and then Continue to Forms where you will select which breakouts you will attend.
If you are an ADACC member, select the "Bundle" and get all eight breakouts for $80. Click Add to Cart, click Add to Cart again and then Continue to Forms to complete the registration.
If you aren't an ADACC member yet, but would like to take advantage of the Member Discount, choose a membership. If you are purchasing for yourself, choose "Individual." If you work for a business, agency, municipality or organization, select that membership option and up to three people will benefit from the Bundle discount.
