Our Training Philosophy

Our mission and purpose is based on the idea that the full participation of people with disabilities in all realms of social, community and economic life will ultimately benefit everyone. We have designed our training offerings to be engaging, relevant, current and responsive to the needs of different audience groups. Using a broad range of approaches, our facilitators provide learning experiences and resources which both enhance understanding as well as enable participants to apply their learning to real life situations.

Our training offerings span a broad spectrum of perspectives: socio-historical paradigms of disability and the human experience of disability, disability statistics and demographics, economic trends, legal issues and dilemmas, accessible information technology, accessibility of built environments, employment practices, the business case for inclusiveness, disability awareness and language, and assistive technology.

In keeping with our mission, we strive to design training experiences that will immediately benefit participants in their personal and professional lives and that will ultimately work toward the full participation of people with disabilities in social, economic and community life in our country.
