The ADA and Private Professional Certification

Posted

Today, Pillsbury attorneys Jerry Jacobs, Julia Judish, and Dawn (Crowell) Murphy issued their advisory titled The ADA and Private Professional Certification. Their Advisory discusses Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), as amended, which mandates that private entities offering examinations or courses related to certain applications, licensing, certification, or credentialing ensure that such exams and courses are accessible to individuals with disabilities or offer alternative accessible arrangements. They encourage those involved with any aspect of credentialing examinations to pay careful attention to what aids or accommodations must be offered by law.
