Greater Credibility/Visibility in Existing Professional Role

• OCR involvement
• Greater influence in organizational/campus decision making related to UD and accessibility

What IADP students are saying:

• "For the OCR, they (the DOE) needed a bona fide representative from our campus. I was the only one with the credentials. The IADP certificate was recognized by DOE for this OCR complaint."
• "We received a complaint through the Office of Civil Rights, and we had to address that. I became more of the point person since IADP."
• "Many of the southern states around NC have been hit with accessibility lawsuits, and I hope to help position the college so we do not become one of those statistics."
• "This course has been extremely helpful as we write our campus policy. This area has been a real struggle for us as we are entering new territory that is unfamiliar to most people on our campus."
• "Confidence is the biggest thing I got out of the program. Now people listen to my advice more respectfully because they know I have training."
