From Policy to Practice: ADA Implementation in Osteopathic Medical Education
Accessibility in medical education is shaped by more than individual accommodation decisions. It also depends on how institutions define technical standards, design assessments and apply competency expectations across their programs.
Accessibility in medical education is shaped by more than individual accommodation decisions. It also depends on how institutions define technical standards, design assessments and apply competency expectations across their programs.
Through real world examples and a live Q&A, this webinar will translate Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements into practical approaches for osteopathic medical education.
Learning Objectives:
- Examine key intersections: Analyze how technical standards, accommodations and competency-based medical education influence one another
- Evaluate accommodation requests: Distinguish reasonable modifications from changes that would fundamentally alter an educational program or assessment
- Apply inclusive strategies: Use practical approaches that advance accessibility, equity and inclusion across medical education settings
- Strengthen learning design: Create educational and assessment practices that support student success and professional competency development
