Learn Disability Awareness – Working with People with Disabilities

People with disabilities represent a significant and largely underutilized resource for businesses. Many disabled persons are underemployed or unemployed. As a result of advocates for diversity, as well as a shrinking labor pool, employers are taking a serious look at hiring and retaining people with disabilities. This course will give supervisors, managers, and human resource consultants tools and tips for creating a diverse workplace. This will help you know how to:

• Prepare to welcome people with disabilities into their workplace
• Interact with people with disabilities
• Identify and overcome barriers in the workplace
• Use respectful, appropriate, acceptable language in any circumstance
• Understand what their company can do during hiring and interviewing
• Understand what job accommodation is and how it applies in their workplace
