International Symbol of Accessibility wiith up and down arrowsThe next webinar in the U.S. Access Board's free monthly series will take place June 2 from 2:30 – 4:00 (ET) and cover vertical access, a key component of accessibility between changes in level along accessible routes. The session will address where vertical access is required (or exempted) in the ADA and ABA Accessibility Standards and how it can be achieved. Presenters will review requirements in the standards for ramps, curb ramps, elevators, and platform lifts, clarify common sources of confusion, and address questions submitted in advance or posed during the session.

Visit www.accessibilityonline.org for more information or to register for the webinar. Questions can be submitted in advance of the session (total limited to 25) or can be posed during the webinar. Webinar attendees can earn continuing education credits. The webinar series is hosted by the ADA National Network in cooperation with the Board. Archived copies of previous Board webinars are available on the site.
