Increasing Disability Inclusion: Centralized Accommodation Programs as a Best Practice

This webinar shares resources and information to help businesses of all sizes develop and support Centralized Accommodation Programs (CAPs).

Today, companies increasingly understand that a workforce that includes people with disabilities helps boost the bottom line through increased innovation, creativity and productivity. Key to fostering such workplace is effective policies and processes for providing reasonable accommodations. A best practice in this regard is the establishment of a centralized accommodation program (CAP). The purpose of a CAP is to consolidate in a single office or location subject matter expertise necessary to assess, evaluate and select effective and meaningful accommodations. A CAP may also consolidate funding streams for some or all accommodations at a level removed from the department or unit in which the individual is working. This webinar shares resources and information to help businesses of all sizes develop and support CAPs.
