Topics address the purpose of the ADA; personnel within an organization who should receive training on the ADA; information on the ADA that these personnel should have; starting a training program on the ADA; accessibility of training to persons with disabilities; and related training responsibilities (such as prohibition of third-party discrimination). A listing of three resources is provided. (DB)
