Introduction: Screen 2
ADA Accessibility Guidelines
On-Line Education Course
This course—developed jointly by the AIA and the U.S. Architectural and Transportation Barriers Compliance Board, or Access Board—is designed to keep you up-to-date on the ADAAG guidelines that will be adopted as new ADA regulations following action by the Department of Justice. The course addresses only recent changes in ADAAG, the advisory document developed by the Access Board. Specifically, it covers two new sections that will be added and new provisions for children that will be incorporated into existing standards.
Please note that although the guidelines in this course are likely to be required in the near future, they have not yet been adopted into existing ADA regulations. However, we encourage you to begin following the guidelines as a matter of good practice, since providing accessible facilities is already required by the ADA.
