This section of the training will provide information on how to respond to an accommodation request for a disability from job applicants or candidates during the search process. Participants will learn how to engage in conversation before, during, and after the hiring process to ensure adherence to the ADA federal law. Case studies will be used to provide more in-depth examples of common accommodations and challenges that may occur in navigating communication around accommodations and disability. This training will be for those who lead and participate in search committees or in a supervisory or chair role. This training is sponsored by the Affirmative Action Office
If you require any disability-related accommodations or auxiliary aides to comfortably attend and participate, reach out to Jennifer Smith email: jsmith96@binghamton.edu. If possible, please provide 3-5 days of advanced notice regarding your accessibility needs. Thank you.
