ICRMA/PARSAC ADA WORKSHOP
It is time to register for the ICRMA/PARSAC ADA Workshop. The ADA Self-Evaluation Checklist (76-pages) provided to you by ICRMA is complex, and this workshop will help you understand how to make the best use of this valuable tool and how to apply it to the Transition Plan template.
Be sure to go to http://www.icrma.org/MembersOnly/tabid/2276/Default.aspx to access the ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan documents. After you have entered the “Members Only” page, open the ADA Self Evaluation and Transition Plan link listed under “Quick Links.” Please download, print, and bring the documents to the workshop with you. We will not provide the documents at the workshop. We recommend that you three-hole punch the documents and place them in a 3-ring binder. Tab documents have been provided so that you can also print the tabs. Printing and installing the tabs in the appropriate location of your binder will facilitate the ease of your participation in the workshop.
