Description

In this learning session, we will cover the following:

• Asking participants about accessibility needs.
• Venue accessibility.
• Providing accessibility services/logistical info (sign language, captioning).
• Providing materials in advance.
• Interacting with participants accessibly.

Workshop 1 is a recommended pre-requisite. Workshop 1 is critical to staff understanding accessibility, and how their everyday actions affect people with different accommodation needs in a positive, or negative, way.

Please put a placeholder in your calendar. You will be sent a calendar invitation 1 week before the event. 

** Accessibility notes:

All trainings are divided into 2 parts: pre-recorded (that we will watch as a group), and interactive.

We have sign language interpretation for the pre-recorded part, but not for the interactive session after. Please connect with the Workplace Wellness Service Centre if you wish to request sign language services for break-out rooms.
